Introducing a promising start-up
Antoine, aged 22, is in his 2nd year of an engineering course at ISAE-SUPAERO, and Lazare, his partner, is studying for a Master’s degree in entrepreneurship at Panthéon Sorbonne University. Two years ago, Lazare’s sister developed severe food allergies, and her life suddenly became complicated. The two boys wanted to help her, so they looked into the tools available.
The idea germinated, and the project was born: to develop a platform enabling people with food allergies and intolerances to eat easily. The aim was to “save time, make things easier and give people the confidence to identify and diversify the products that are right for them”, explains Antoine. Another objective: “To avoid the social isolation that is a problem for these people”.
Allergenius, which is based at lSAE-SUPAERO, benefits from the Institute’s incubation programme, which includes themed workshops (entrepreneurship, marketing, communication, fund-raising assistance, sales negotiation, etc.) and specific coaching sessions (pitch training, networking, etc.).
From 2025, the start-up will be housed in the InnovSpace incubator at the heart of the ISAE-SUPAERO campus. The start-up has also been awarded a €3,500 Jeunes Pousses Entrepreneuriat 2024 grant from the ISAE-SUPAERO Foundation.
3-in-1 functionalities
The platform has three functions:
- a scanner to identify products that meet individual criteria;
- a shopping tab so that you can do your shopping online in line with your dietary restrictions;
- a community space for exchanging, sharing and cooking with people who have the same allergies.
“Today, existing applications such as Yuka, Allergobox and Jow don’t offer the full range of services we have in mind,” note Antoine and Lazare. They are advancing the development of a prototype, which should be completed in a few months’ time, and the start-up is in the process of being set up. AllerGenius is the name of this future app that says “no to restrictions, yes to solutions”.
3ᵉ prize at the regional competition for student entrepreneurs
The two co-founders have just been awarded the 3ᵉ prix CRECE 2024, which encourages the most innovative student initiatives in Occitanie. The Jeunes Pousses grant from the ISAE-SUPAERO Foundation was recently awarded to Antoine and the support provided by ISAE-SUPAERO’s InnovSpace are a bundle of encouragement and support.
