Message from the Dean Prof. Bournois
Dear Faculty and Staff members, dear Students,
I wanted to let you know that we are following with utmost attention the situation relating to the new Coronavirus (Covid-19). Following the indications of local and national authorities in Italy, we made the decision to adopt preventive measures to safeguard public health and to guarantee the best functioning of our Turin Campus.
Fortunately, we have no positive case of infection among faculty, staff and students in our school. And no suspicious case either.
However, teaching activities (classes, exams and meetings with faculty) will be suspended on the Turin Campus from Monday 24 of February until Saturday 29 of February. The Regional Government of Piedmont and the Italian Ministry of Health have also released a specific provision prohibiting for one week all educational trips within or outside of national borders.
For our campuses outside of Italy, you are requested to follow recommendations and measures issued by the respective authorities where ESCP campuses are located. Anyone who would have been in the following towns (Codogno, Casalpusterlengo, Castiglione d’Adda, Maleo, Fombio, Somaglia, Bertonico, Terranova dei Passerini, San Fiorano and Castel Gerundo) or in contact with people residing in those areas MUST remain in quarantine for 14 days. If you are in doubt or if you need support, please contact your Programme Director.
We are extremely vigilant about decisions coming from all national health authorities. In case of new updates we will advise students, personnel and the community at large of any further developments.
With my very best,
Frank Bournois
Dean
ESCP Business SchoolBecomes an Academic Partners of the Women's Forum
As part of its strategic commitment to the promotion of equity and inclusion, ESCP has entered into a partnership with the Women's Forum.
ESCP is committed to promoting women's leadership in the corporate world and is developing European programmes designed to address the many issues faced by women in the workplace and in leadership roles.
In line with this commitment, ESCP has initiated programmes such as it’s "Women in Leadership" certificate and has added content on female leadership and entrepreneurship in many of its courses.
Flexibility has also been added to the delivery of the School’s EMBA in order to make continuing education more accessible for women who tend to be faced with greater caregiving responsibilities outside of work. The programme now features choice over study mode and duration, as well as a bigger menu of electives.
In parallel to its programmes, ESCP Business School offers a range of scholarships specifically dedicated to female leaders to empower them to transform companies.
Our partnership with the Women's Forum is a boost to ESCP's continuing efforts to encourage diversity in business and to promote gender equality in all regards. In collaborative mode we can enhance both the awareness of these issues and support women in terms of their leadership skills and advancement.
Professor Philippe ThomasExecutive Vice President for Business & External RelationsThis year ESCP will intervene via the expertise of Professor Véronique Tran at Women's Forum Germany in Berlin on 20 and 21 June 2022.

Company boards have always faced challenges as they fulfill their somewhat constant missions.
However, the specific fulfillment of those missions varies with the circumstances, and today’s circumstances are nothing short of extraordinary. From the coronavirus crisis to rapid societal changes, from the increasing importance of ESG considerations to cybersecurity threats, and from geopolitical uncertainty to the slowdown of globalization, how are company boards adapting?
To explore company board adaptations to today’s extraordinary context, the KPMG Professorship in International Corporate Governance is pleased to welcome experienced board members and executives including
- Monica de Virgiliis, Chairwoman of the Board of Directors, SNAM and Board Chair Chapter Zero France
- Angeles Garcia-Poveda, Independent Chairwoman of the Board of Directors, Legrand
- Lord David Gold, Lawyer and Founding Partner of David Gold & Associates
- Denis Terrien, Chairman IFA (French Institute of Directors/Institut Français des administrateurs) - CEO Salesforce South Europe
- Serge Weinberg, Board Chairman, Sanofi
The welcome and opening remarks will be delivered by Valerie Moatti, Dean of Faculty, ESCP and Wilfrid Lauriano do Rego, President of the Supervisory Board, KPMG. The introduction and exchanges will be led by Patrick-Hubert Petit, former KPMG partner, Drew Shagrin, Professor of Business Law at ESCP and David Chekroun, Professor of Business Law at ESCP and Scientific Director of the KPMG Professorship in International Corporate Governance.
After the roundtable discussion, a short video will present the Professorship’s innovative tool for teaching corporate governance, a simulation that propels learners into the boardroom in a new and better way.
