I believe that MoHo's values are deeply linked to those of Stanford and the Graduate School of Business. MoHo is one of the most creative initiatives on the planet: it is about innovation, company spirit, taking risks, being generous, bringing people together... and that is what makes it so exciting and completely in phase with the ambition of the Stanford Business Club of France. As an association, we have dual aim: firstly to enforce the values of progress of Stanford GSB in France and secondly to demonstrate France's dynamism to the USA and to Stanford.
Innovation relies on technology, but not technology alone. Technology officers want to bring in new revenues, increase customer satisfaction, and focus on the benefits side, not just the cost side. Their job increasingly requires creativity and calls for identifying new opportunities, and then pursuing them. Initiatives such as MoHo brings some fresh air in the way innovation is perceived, conceived, and implemented. That can only be beneficial to the society as a whole.
As a result of my various experiences with students in the past, I am convinced that the MoHo initiative will allow students to devote their energy to tackling dreams and inventing solutions by uniting and taking advantage of cultural diversity in one place.

It is of the utmost importance that a group of students so highly motivated by the blending of skill and cultural diversity, both at the heart of innovation in organizations, be able to expand their horizons and gain a deeper multicultural understanding of this phenomenon for the future. The dedication of this team of students from the best business and engineering schools in France to organize such an initiative in the most innovative culture in the world (the USA) is a demonstration of the importance given by Europe to such questions. Moreover, having witnessed the capabilities of these students all throughout the CPI 2008 program, I have complete confidence in their energy, creativity and ability to successfully undertake such an innovative and decisive initiative.
Centrale and ESSEC students have showed much dynamism and entrepreunarial spirit. I think their journey to Stanford and their experience in MoHo will broaden their vision of innovation. They will especially realize the importance of "open innovation". Good luck and come back from the USA with heads full of new ideas.
MoHo is a unique opportunity for two of the best schools in France to showcase their capabilities and to truly innovate for the sake of society. The students and organizing partners of the programme are collaborating together to organize such a decisive initiative, one which has a very high probability of becoming a standard on how to instill innovation in corporations today. Moreover, MoHo is the final stepping stone in taking the ESSEC-Centrale school cooperation to a whole new level and hence deserves our attention and support!
MoHo seems to be a very innovative program because of the origin diversity of the team members and because of the selected subjects.The Bell Labs of Alcatel Lucent will be very interested to follow the evolution of this initiative and to help as much as they can to turn innovative technologies and business ideas into new profitable and efficient solutions.
MoHo is about innovation. It's not only about pure innovation and new ideas but it's also about innovation that generates value whether it's for a business, a government or the society as a whole. What I also like about it, is that it gathers students from different parts of the world with diverse backgrounds and origins with the support from a facilitating team and leading edge technologies to enhance effectiveness. It's a quite promising idea from 3 proeminent schools and I am personally excited about it!
A great initiative that shows how the young generation is concerned about global issues and is ready to take the challenge to tackle them. It is fostering a new type of success that is generous and with a new spirit of solidarity where brain and heart can work together.
This meeting on how to facilitate the economic success of innovation may be promising. I do encourage ESSEC students to take profit of the experience of students from others backgrounds, as well as of engineers and designers. I also encourage them to take some ideas back to France to create their own company here. Good luck...
As the Dean of studies at the Ecole Centrale Paris, I have witnessed the great success of the CPI projects since they have been set up and the added value of this multi-disciplinary team work between our students and those of the ESSEC, and now those involved from Strate College. It is thanks to such innovative, audacious and motivating initiatives that the major issues of the 21st century, linked to energy, the environment, information, economy etc will be solved. The inventive approach has fueled enthusiasm amongst the students and young professionals involved. This appears to be the best guarantee for a rich, fruitful and unforgettable experience for all. I can therefore only back such an initiative from both a professional and personal point of view.
This is so inspiring at first glance that not only I joined but now endorsing the MoHo movement.

Cannot wait to meet you all !!!

MoHo is the nomadic place to be, source of innovation of the 21st Century. Cross-disciplinary like all what matters today, MoHo is a spirit, a running energy. Entrepart is proud to sponsor MoHo
Tackling the major problems mankind is now facing requires an immense power of innovation, involving scientific, cultural and sociological approaches; and since all these questions are interdisciplinary ones, most solutions are to be found at the border of different domains. MoHo is a superb oportunity to open news paths towards innovative solutions. This initiative, driven by highly skilled and talented students, must be encouraged.
Disruption and innovation should be applied to the innovation process itself. There is no such thing as too much exposure to breakthrough models and the entrepreneurial drive.
I am honored to have been invited to support the efforts of Le Moho and hope my contribution will benefit the entrepreneur/investor/sponsor ecosystem in Silicon Valley and in Europe.
