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!

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.
