A model of entrepreneurial support based on apprenticeships within a group of entrepreneurs: the case of La Ruche.

Summary Based on the case study of "La Ruche", a collective work space for social entrepreneurs in Paris (France), we will propose an original model of entrepreneurial support based on collective learning. Contrary to the traditional coaching approach in which the coach has a prescriptive role, here the coach disappears in favor of the collective formed by the entrepreneurs. The operating conditions of this system are based on selection, articulating a tension between the diversity of projects and the sharing of common values, the interactional dynamics supported by the programming of events, and the role of the physical work environment.
