Corporate relationsGetting involved

Building lasting partnerships together

ESSEC’s long-standing relationship with the corporate world is characterized by the depth of the partnerships developed over the years. In 2009, corporate contributions represented approximately 30% of ESSEC’s budget (excluding executive education). The internship tax and sponsorship allows you to participate in the development of our training programs and teaching tools by creating research and teaching chairs and scholarship programs. You can also help optimize ESSEC’s infrastructures and accessibility. Together, we can use our innovative spirit to bring our shared values of excellence, openness and diversity to life.
