The school offers a wide range of programs including MSc, MBA, Executive MBA, European Master in Management, Doctorate and Executive Education Programmes, with 120 core faculty members from 28 countries.

Overall, around 1500h teaching are delivered. Each year, 1500 students attend an Entrepreneurship course. Those who wish can join the « Audencia Startup Lab » or, later in their curriculum, the Centrale-Audencia-Ensa incubator. Both offer dedicated specialized support. Audencia’s goal in Entrepreneurship is to develop a life-long entrepreneurial capital among its students.
Audencia also hosts a chair in “Family Entrepreneurship and Society” (see https://entrepreneuriat-familial.audencia.com/) and a chair “Finance for Innovation” (https://faculte-recherche.audencia.com/chaires/finance-pour-linnovation/).

Perhaps these are the reasons for which Time Magazine selected Nantes as ‘the most liveable city in Europe’.
