The aim of the article is to understand the effects of the transition from an entrepreneurial program run in a physical space to an online virtual space in a crisis context on the construction of the professional network of student-entrepreneurs. Through one year’s exploratory qualitative research at a university entrepreneurial centre that adapted its acceleration program to an online virtual space during the health crisis, we analyse the professional network of two cohorts of student-entrepreneurs. The results reveal the construction of their professional network and the behaviours underlying each context.
