Icam Business Forum 2025: Building the Future Together

Icam
15 Apr 2025

For its 15th edition, the Icam Business Forum welcomed 103 companies on March 28th in Paris, at Espace Champerret, to meet with 1,300 engineering students from all seven Icam campuses across France. The event was a vibrant showcase of meaningful exchanges, exciting discoveries, and key moments, including the renewal of partnerships with two Major Corporate Partners.

 

Marked by energy, enthusiasm, and high-quality interactions, the day proved inspiring for all. Students from Icam campuses in Lille, Nantes, Vannes, La Roche-sur-Yon, Grand Paris Sud, Strasbourg-Europe, and Toulouse had the opportunity to meet with innovative and committed companies.
This year, 103 companies from various industries participated, including 36 Major Partners, each bringing dynamic and engaging booths.

It was a valuable opportunity for companies to present their sectors and share their technical, scientific, and human adventures, all with one goal: to recruit new talent! From internships and job offers to apprenticeships and volunteer missions, a wide range of career opportunities were available, opening doors to strong professional prospects for our students and laying the foundation for future collaborations.

 

Determination, Resilience, and Pushing Beyond Limits: A Powerful and Inspiring Testimony from Brahim Asloum

A new feature this year was a student support space, offering workshops in sophrology to help manage stress and improve focus, as well as improv theater sessions on self-confidence and personal expression—offering a well-rounded experience that went beyond traditional networking.
A standout moment was the insightful conference hosted by Icam Alumni, focused on the future of engineering careers—packed with advice, reflections, and shared experiences.

Another highlight of the day was the inspiring talk by Brahim Asloum, one of France’s most celebrated boxers, who spoke about resilience, personal growth, and determination. His words served as a true source of motivation for all attendees.
