Joule: Eni school of entrepreneurship

Our mission, between education and acceleration

Joule’s mission is to support the growth of sustainable enterprises, by forming a new generation of entrepreneurs, through the development of core skills and the use of specific start-up acceleration tools. Joule provides access to concrete challenges and opportunities, offers a network of first-class trainers and professors, and creates the conditions to become part of a great Community. A true ecosystem, creating space for the new visions of the future.

Enterprises are supported by Joule Discovery Lab, the idea validation path on circular economy, sustainability and energy transition, divided into three different sections. For start-ups, to accompany the growth of sustainable enterprises. For corporate, to support companies in the co-innovation process. For Eni people, to work on the development of an entrepreneurial mindset, and use it to create new innovative in-house projects.

And for those who already launched a start-up focusing on decarbonisation, on the strategies to tackle climate change and on circular economy, there is our Acceleration program.

Lastly, there is Joule Open, the educational path that supports future entrepreneurs in the sign of sustainability. Platform members have access to many exclusive opportunities, from in-depth sessions with Business School experts and professors, to live thematic events, workshops and certification paths.
