Collaboration with HEC Montréal: An inspiring corporate order

At Mimipots, we're passionate about creating unique and durable decorative concrete objects. Today, I'm pleased to share a collaboration that really stood out to me: a special corporate commission created in partnership with the HEC Montréal entrepreneurial base.

As the founder of Mimipots, I have always strived to combine creativity and quality. This collaboration with HEC Montréal was the perfect opportunity to merge our shared values ​​of innovation and sustainability to create a unique corporate product. Working with such a prestigious institution was not only an honor, but also an opportunity to give back to a community that has played a key role in my entrepreneurial journey.

A meaningful collaboration

This commission was particularly important to me because I had the opportunity to participate in HEC Montréal's EntrePrism incubator in 2022. This program was a decisive turning point in my career, providing me with valuable knowledge and an invaluable network. Collaborating again with HEC Montréal was a way to pay tribute to this institution that contributed so much to my entrepreneurial development.

The Importance of Meaningful Partnerships

At Mimipots, we firmly believe that meaningful collaborations are essential to innovate and create authentic products. Working with HEC Montréal allowed us to combine our expertise to design a product that not only meets expectations, but exceeds them. These partnerships enrich our creative process and strengthen our ties with the entrepreneurial community. This project highlighted the importance of co-creation in developing impactful products.

The product development process

Developing this corporate product was a true creative journey. Here are the key steps in the process:

1. Design and drawing : We started with brainstorming and design sessions to define the aesthetics and functionality of the product. M Thanks to those who participated in this stage. Jules Lerouge and Delphie Poulin
