A ceremony to inaugurate the new premises of start-ups Teach on Mars, Beepeers and Option Way was held on Friday 13 October.
Join landing in July
As you already know, Teach on Mars moved home in July 2017. Accompanied by two other start-ups, Option Way and Beepeers, also from the Business Pôle incubator, the Teach on Mars rocket blasted off for its new home at 399 Route des Crêtes. Once safely landed at their new base, the three companies set about moving in to a shared space measuring 1400 m².
Inauguration of a start-up cluster
Last Friday, the three start-ups officially inaugurated their new premises and celebrated new lives under the same roof with the Sophia-Antipolis community and local politicians. The ribbon was cut by Jean Leonetti, Mayor of Antibes and President of CASA (Sophia-Antipolis Metropolitan Council), accompanied by Alpes-Maritimes Senator and former mayor of Valbonne Marc Daunis and Philippe Pradal, Deputy Mayor of Nice.
The festivities continued through the evening around a delicious buffet, with many guests in attendance and performances by groups of musicians.

For our intrepid start-uppers, this openspace – known as “Born To Fly” – will be much more than just a place to work. It will be a meeting point for discussion, collaboration and creativity. And this is what makes it special, supported by design features to promote employee wellbeing and the future growth of everyone.
We wish all three start-ups a successful voyage, both on earth, in the skies and even outer space…
