PEPITE Clusters, SNEE Status, and D2E Degrees

Established in 2014, the 33 Student Clusters for Innovation, Transfer, and Entrepreneurship (PEPITE) and the French National Student Entrepreneur Status (SNEE) contribute to the creation of ecosystems that are adapted to the pursuit of the entrepreneurial projects of students and young graduates. National Student Entrepreneur Status allows beneficiaries to be recognized and supported, to join an active network of more than 8,000 student entrepreneurs, to access coworking spaces, and to receive financial support. From the emergence of an idea to its successful implementation, PEPITE clusters offer guidance and support for aspiring entrepreneurs.

National Student Entrepreneur Status offers students and young graduates an opportunity to pursue entrepreneurial projects through a PEPITE cluster. The D2E Student Entrepreneur Diploma (an unaccredited diplôme d’établissement) goes hand in hand with National Student Entrepreneur Status, enabling students to pursue their entrepreneurial aspirations with optimal security and visibility.
