NICOLAS ESNIS

 “As part of the MSc Data Analytics & Artificial Intelligence, I was involved in the Matrice programme, which is a year-long joint entrepreneurship venture with École 42 and several other schools. We dealt with the issue of digital trust, under the tutelage of the data company Be-Ys. The team we set up involved several students from École 42, a law major from Paris-Descartes University and myself. We quickly decided to create a BtoC solution for people to take back control over their personal data. Being fully committed to this adventure was only made possible by EDHEC and the MSc faculty. I was able to adjust my schedule to fit with my entrepreneur needs at Matrice. I also followed the Le Wagon coding bootcamp which was needed for my startup. Today our solution, Yser is successfully launched and I am at Station F. Yser Technologies helps companies to manage personal data and comply with the General Data Protection Regulation. We provide a B2B SaaS solution allowing Data Protection Officers to receive, process and answer securely personal data requests from their users, customers or employees. Yser Technologies recently started working with the Be-Ys group new data protection and digital trust solutions. EDHEC, Matrice, and Le Wagon and complementary experiences have been a great opportunity, helping me rise up to the challenges I had not dreaming of undertaking so soon and most importantly create Yser.“
