The OSI and Business Forum bring together high school students from the Nancy-Metz school district, Arts et Métiers students and alumni, and representatives from companies in the sector to introduce them to the engineering profession and inspire them to pursue careers in the field.

This year, Arts et Métiers honored to welcome Emmanuel Serna, Inspector General of Education, Sport, and Research, to this event.
