All of us at ESCP Business School mourn the sad passing this week of Dr Pritam Singh.
For so many years and in so many ways, Dr Singh was a steadfast collaborator, a wise mentor and a great friend to ESCP.
Dr Singh's association with the School spanned more than three decades, making connections between our campuses in Europe, particularly those in Berlin, London and Paris, and leading Indian academic institutions as well as organisations at the highest level in the Banking and Energy sectors. Each year, it was our pleasure to welcome Dr Singh at ESCP during his regular trips to visit his many friends and colleagues in Europe. He personally led a number of high-level delegations on these visits.
Dr Singh will be deeply missed, and so will his invaluable contribution and experience in the field of Business Education over many years. We send our deep condolences to his family and friends.

What we tend to forget however, is that the basic ideas of AI date back to over eight decades!
This talk will shed light on AI's history: What are its origins? What exactly lies behind the notion of AI? How can AI be defined?
We will then review some concrete examples of how AI can be applied in fields as diverse as journalism, business or art.

In life as in business, everything starts with choices and ESCP has chosen to be stronger than the pandemic by offering a pioneering series of masterclasses on innovation and change during the crisis.
The pandemic will drive the increase in demand for new perspectives and skills in leaders capable of turning challenges into opportunities. ESCP Turin Campus has responded quickly to this need with the launch of a virtual executive programme.
In the context of the COVID-19 crisis, ESCP involved experts and faculty from all its campuses to offer a series of virtual lectures focusing on how businesses and individuals can understand, adapt, change and innovate during this pandemic.
More than 200 participants from the ESCP network, from MBA and Executive MBA participants to prospective participants, from Alumni to attendees of ESCP’s executive customised programmes, took part in the online programme "Drive Change Through Crisis", launched in April 2020.
Each of the six 2-hour masterclasses, hosted by as many distinguished ESCP professors, was exclusively designed for executives facing unpredictable challenges, who must innovate and re-think the way they do business.
"Ordo ab Chao: How to Find Order in a World of Chaos", hosted by Nicolas Kfuri, Visiting Professor of Innovation and Strategy, was the first webinar of the series. It was followed by “Build Resilience and Strategy during and after the Crisis” by Mark Esposito, Visiting Professor of Corporate Sustainability, Strategy and Economics. The third masterclass, “Thriving in the Instant Economic Crisis”, was hosted by Terence Tse, Full Faculty Professor of Entrepreneurship. Alessandro Lanteri, Visiting Professor of Strategy, Innovation, Entrepreneurship, hosted the webinar “Decision Making in Times of Crisis”, while the week after Vittorio De Pedys, Affiliate Professor of Finance and Management, presented “International Financial Markets Post-Crisis: What to do with your Money”. “Leading Through a Global Pandemic: How to build resilient and hopeful teams with purpose and humanity?”, by Lisa Xiong, Visiting Professor of Leadership and Management, concluded the successful series of webinars.
Professors examined the consequences of the COVID-19 crisis in terms of economics, trends, threats and leadership. They went through the most radical technological evolutions of our time, and discussed the new role of managers in this context.
Participants were enthusiastic about the quality and relevance of the contents delivered by ESCP professors.
Turin was the first ESCP campus affected by the coronavirus crisis due to the spread of the virus in Italy at the end of February. Schools and universities in the northern regions of the country were the first in Europe to close. Turin Campus had a quick and productive reaction, and has been delivering classes online since the beginning of March.
All activities were switched to 100% digital during the lockdown. In just a few weeks, the Turin Campus Executive team has proved its high value and competences by creating a wholly new and innovative online programme, capable of offering the critical skills needed to drive change through times of crisis.

Associate Dean for Research and Chairs Pramuan Bunkanwanicha, Professor Régis Coeurderoy and Dr. Sonia Ben Slimane introduce the very first series of impact papers produced by the school’s faculty on “Managing a Post-Covid19 Era”.
Research at ESCP Business School envisions a unique and dynamic environment. We are very proud of launching our research initiative on “ESCP Impact Papers” aimed at providing insights into management knowledge that is applicable to not only practicing managers, but also other stakeholders, namely the European community, students and society.
The ESCP research impact is developed within the four pillars of the B.E.S.T. framework (Business impact, European impact, Society impact, and Teaching impact) as a research-for- action framework.
This first edition of ESCP Impact Papers on “Managing a Post-Covid19 Era” demonstrates how our incisive researchers could react to addressing several insightful, on-time challenges that help further reflections, to better prepare for the possible changes on the future of business and society following this unprecedented disruptive pandemic.
This situation called for an unprecedented reaction from our faculty
Not more than a month ago, and with the active support of the ESCP Business School Executive Committee, we launched a call for impact papers "MANAGING A POST-COVID-19 ERA" to the ESCP Business School academic staff. The aim was to provide interpretations of the corona virus crisis and its impact on European business and society, based on the expertise and experience of the ESCP faculty, thus stimulating creative ideas and innovative perspectives that could inspire our many stakeholders.
The underlying idea is expressed through a simple question: Is there a before- and an after-coronavirus crisis? With such a question, we wonder whether we can anticipate the consequences of this exceptional situation and whether we can identify transformative factors, or continuities, particularly regarding the potential changes in consumer behaviour, the organizational challenges for management and leadership, or the strategic and financial issues in the markets that this crisis may generate. From a broader perspective, we can also ask what the implications of this crisis are for public policy, innovation; national, regional and global economic development but also for many societal issues. As a higher education institution, it is also important to explore the implications of the crisis on the transformation of higher education, particularly in terms of studying and teaching management.
The subject areas for contributions were very open and reflect the diversity of expertise within the faculty. We were pleasantly surprised to receive in just a few days, proposals from almost 50% of the faculty. We were even more pleased with the transformation of these proposals into full contributions – our first impact papers.
One month further on, we are able to offer you unique analyses and proposals from the ESCP faculty. As you will see, there is a great wealth of contributions, both in content and angles of approach. This diversity reflects as much the diversity of the expertise and knowledge of the faculty, as the diversity of their concerns in the face of this unprecedented COVID-19 crisis.
As part of this collective mobilization, we have grouped the contributions under thematic headings that fall within the framework of our BEST strategy:
|
B.E.S.T impacts |
Topic |
Number of articles |
|
B - Business impact |
Changes in Consumer Behaviors |
8 |
|
|
Challenges for Tomorrow’s Management |
21 |

13 |

E - European impact |
Europe and Economic & Business Policies |

S - Societal impact |
Social Responsibility and Tomorrow's Society |
15 |
|
T - Teaching impact |
The Future of Learning and Teaching |
11 |
|
|
Total |
80 |
Each of these contributions is first and foremost that of its author(s), who had complete freedom in choosing the subject and the manner in which it was dealt with. ESCP Business School is fundamentally respectful of its faculty’s academic freedom.
With a mobilization that has extended to the school's doctoral students, as well as to external collaborators, we are delighted to see this academic and human challenge succeed so quickly, an exceptional mark of solidarity from all those involved in the realization of this project.
