Henri Bervick (SKEMA 2010), Ambassador of the Club SKEMA Alumni Entrepreneurship

Could you briefly tell us about your career since graduating from SKEMA Business School and what motivated you to become an ambassador for the Club SKEMA Alumni Entrepreneurship?

I joined SKEMA in 2006 after a DUT GEA, and I'm a graduate of the class of 2010. During my studies, I did a gap year to enrich my career. In addition to the Grande École programme, I obtained a double degree in Master CCA in partnership with Lille 2.

Since graduating, I've always kept a strong link with SKEMA. I've regularly attended alumni events and, more recently, I've had the opportunity to speak as part of the Specialized Master's program. When the opportunity arose to relaunch the Entrepreneurship club after the COVID period, I was won over by Audrey's enthusiasm and the ideas she put forward. Doing it as a team reinforced my motivation, as it's a collaborative and stimulating project.

How do you plan to energize and animate the Club Entrepreneurship as its ambassador? Can you share some ideas for events or initiatives you'd like to put in place?

My ambition is to propose a variety of events that explore all facets of an entrepreneur's life. Each event would be an opportunity to address a specific theme: the birth of a project, the search for financing, managing growth, or even the sale of a business. There's no shortage of subjects to learn and share about.

My dream is to create a major annual gathering for SKEMA graduate entrepreneurs. This event could bring together a maximum number of alumni entrepreneurs to discuss the challenges specific to their profession and share their experiences. The idea would be to build a space for exchange, mutual support and inspiration around entrepreneurship.

What message would you like to convey to our alumni to encourage them to join and become actively involved in the Club SKEMA Alumni Entrepreneurship?

Joining the club is a great opportunity to meet people who can transform your entrepreneurial journey. You'll discover new perspectives, benefit from a friendly environment in which to exchange ideas, and learn far more than you ever imagined.

Whether you're an experienced entrepreneur, or just thinking of starting out on your own, the Entrepreneurship club is for you. Come and contribute to the dynamic, enrich the discussions and benefit from the collective energy to move forward together!
