“Profiles of tomorrow”, a student project that puts you in contact with the pioneers of the responsible economy
Early 2023, The Business Journal took part in the innovation competition Hyblaborganized each year by the Nantes network and resource center West Medialab. The objective of the competition is to design an innovative digital content or service project for a media outlet (interactive stories, promotion of archives, event coverage, data visualization, etc.) with a hybrid team of around ten students (journalism, web design, computer science).
Discover and connect
With the imposed theme “Climate emergency, local solutions”, the students and The Business Journal imagined and designed an online application to discover the profiles of committed entrepreneurs from all sectors, in all territories, and to highlight the solutions they are developing to meet climate challenges.

Inspired by famous dating apps, the “Profiles of tomorrow” mobile app presents the entrepreneur, his activity, his location, offers associated editorial content (podcast to listen to, article to read on the Business Journal), and also allows you to get in touch with these pioneers of tomorrow’s economy via direct access to their LinkedIn page.
In addition, a map shows these pioneers in each territory, with the possibility of filtering the results by sector of activity.
