The novelties of the second edition are the launch of a pilot study to monitor the health and lifestyles of the entrepreneur and, secondly, the commitment that all projects, "regardless of their success", will be documented with a business case that will make it possible to disseminate knowledge in subsequent editions, Atelier by ISEM has declared.
