Francis C. Lang-Amiot (Class of 54) is a Founder of and Major Donor to the ESCP Foundation. At the ESCP Bicentenary Fundraising Gala in London on 7th November 2019, he announced he would be making a new donation of one million euros to the School.

Francis C. Lang-Amiot becomes the first ESCP Alumnus and Donor to make such an important donation. His contribution will fund the development of ESCP and the deployment of its international strategy.

“The progress of the School is tremendous, both in its international development and its wide range of programmes. “Sup de Co Paris” was an important stage in my life and I am very grateful for the opportunities it gave me.

I wanted to significantly increase my donation to ESCP to support its current needs. I have full confidence in the School and its Dean, Frank Bournois, to make the best use of my donation and allow ESCP to complete this crucial step of its development.

I encourage all my fellow alumni to join me!”

After his studies at ESCP in parallel with a Law degree and public accountability courses, Francis C. Lang-Amiot obtained a PhD in Economics in Germany and an MBA at Harvard Business School. During his carreer, he worked for prestigious firms in the finance industry, such as Lehman Brothers, Rockefeller Brothers and Hill Samuel.

Thank you to all participants and generous donors at the ESCP Bicentenary Fundraising Gala in London last week. A fabulous €200,000 was raised in the 200th year of ESCP, contributing to the School’s Scholarship Programme.

100 guests gathered this year at the Four Seasons Park Lane for a wonderful evening sponsored by 17Capital and Accuracy. A cocktail reception with champagne premier cru Frerejean Freres was followed by an absolutely delicious dinner.

Adrian Biddell hosted the life auction of impressive lots, kindly donated by Pierre Guénant (Class of 72), Erwan Faiveley (Class of 03), Cartier, Claudie Haigneré and W. Salamoon & Sons.

After an address by Christian Mouillon, President of the ESCP Foundation, and testimonials from two Bachelor in Management (BSc) scholarship students, Julia Fladrich and Maya Caroti, around 20 alumni pledged their support to the ESCP Scholarship Programme for close to £100,000.

On behalf of the scholarship students and all the ESCP community, THANK YOU!
