Nearly 1,000 Students Take Part in the Groupe BPCE Innove ta Banque (‘Reinvent your Bank’) competition

The 5^th edition of the Innove ta Banque competition enjoyed immense success against a background of Groupe BPCE companies recruiting over 4,000 work-study students every year throughout France.

Organized by Groupe BPCE and Atlas*, this competition reflects the high level of interest felt by students in the issues and transformations shaping the banking industry. This year, a total of 965 students from more than 150 different schools and universities across France took part, submitting close to 300 projects to envision the future of banking.

The four teams short-listed for the final pitched their projects to senior managers from the Group, presenting high-quality ideas that reflected their innovative ideas and commitment. Congratulations to Baptiste Bridon, Theo Jakubowiez, and Ophélie Luangamath, students at Dauphine and Sciences Po, who were awarded the 2025 Grand Prize for their project focused on an eco-friendly bank for young people.
