Led by the Bureau des Elèves with the support of the student association Agora, the class 2015 of the ESCP Master in Management – who will be graduating in december 2015 – launches its fundraising campaign to finance scholarships for talented students of the upcoming classes.
This initiative demonstrates the solidarity of our student community and that diversity is a the earth of ESCP priorities.
You can make a donation for this project monitored by ESCP Foundation until the graduation ceremony on December 4th, 2015. The amount raised will be announced during this event.
ESCP, the only truly pan-European business school, has launched its new ‘Cultures for Business’ or ‘C4B’ strategy designed to develop a new generation of international and transnational business leaders, who can understand and embrace the opportunities offered by cultural diversity.

Last Tuesday 23 June, the ESCP Foundation launches a new mentoring programme between students who received a scholarship and donors of the Foundation.
The goal of this project is to add a personnalised mentoring (advices about the cursus, internships etc) to the financial support given to the students.
Mentors and students have met during this convivial event, hosted by the company EY. 11 pairs start this new programme for minimum 1 year period. We hope that these new relationships will continue way beyond!
The ESCP Foundation is now looking for new volunteer donors to mentor students starting September 2015. If you are interested, do not hesitate to contact us.
Some pictures of the evening.
The amphitheatre Gélis – a historic place in ESCP – is currently being renovated. It will have a new layout with ergonomic furniture and cutting-edge equipment, thus offering an optimal work environment for the students.
This is part of a larger programme of digitalisation and modernisation of the ESCP’s campuses : digital classrooms and libraries, in-service training online… The goal is to offer a learning environment that matches with the excellence of the School.
The ESCP Foundation takes part in this initiative by giving the opportunity its donors to name a seat of the amphitheater Gélis to thank them for their gift.
For a gift of € 2 500 – spread over one, two or five years – a personal name plate will be placed in the Gélis amphitheatre for 7 years.
The donations will enable the ESCP Foundation to reinforce its actions in favour of the School’s development : financing scholarships, supporting the new digital strategy…
For instance, a €2500 donation enables the Foundation to finance a mobility grant for a student.
Thus, this “special operation” has a dual impact :
>> an opportunity to have one’s name linked with ESCP’s history by occupying a prime place in the School :
>> an opportunity to participate in the school future, by supporting the Foundation’s strategic actions
Note to the good students (used to being ranked first throughout their education) we have reserved them the first three rows of seats. For a gift of € 4 000 to the Foundation, they will return to their places on the benches of the School’s amphitheatre.
The new version of the Gélis amphitheatre will be unveiled in October 2015. Our generous donors will be invited to this ceremony.
