    Even though I have been working in Luxury companies for 20 years, I decided to take the Major in Luxury in order to meet CEOs from successful companies and be able to compare strategies and key drivers in the luxury sector. Thanks to the program, I now have a better understanding of what retail and wholesale really mean in terms of distribution and business models. It has also enabled me to make a much clearer distinction between the luxury industries in Italy and in France.

    I now understand the importance of governance, organization and management as well as the financial environment. Studying at the Bocconi Institute and exchanging with alumni who share the same focus was a truly unique experience. The luxury major brought a greater sense of perspective to my job and helped me build a more strategic and structured approach. The program has enabled me to develop a deeper and better understanding of key drivers in the world of luxury. It has opened up new horizons - luxury as a concept, a sector and a business model with an international perspective - and made me reconsider how to achieve my goals.

     

  •   Through the HEC Paris network and the broader perspective i have gained on innovation, I am now prepared for my new position as marketing director for Boeing.

    The impressive networking opportunities and the new perspectives I gained on the aviation industry were perfectly tailored to my particular needs. The Aviation Major focuses on current industry issues and perspectives.

    It’s been tremendously helpful to have such a thorough understanding of the challenges facing the aerospace industry. Experts share their experience and vision of the market and the future, helping us to understand where the aviation industry is headed and how to ensure success. Our time in Montreal was highly informative: we were able to compare and adapt what we learned to our own business context.

  •   I feel that the HEC Paris Executive MBA has provided me with an excellent framework for the business experience and knowledge that I have accumulated throughout my career.

    The HEC Paris EMBA program impacted me in a number of ways. The global orientation and the emphasis on strategic, financial and human capital management have really helped me in my daily business activities. I was thrilled to have the opportunity of working with outstanding members of faculty, alumni and fantastic classmates from all over the world with very diverse backgrounds.

     

    I had previously occupied senior management positions and I am currently working as an entrepreneur. I feel that the HEC Paris Executive MBA has provided me with an excellent framework for the business experience and knowledge that I have accumulated throughout my career. It has also enriched my experience with cutting-edge business theories and best practice. This has helped me to view and examine my current business activities from different perspectives and different angles. I always look forward to taking part in alumni events as they give me the opportunity to share my experience and build friendships.

    The Major really extended my existing industry expertise from a vertical management perspective. It also delivered in terms of executive learning, horizontal management skills and sharpened my accumulated knowledge. The experiences we shared in the classroom span all domains and expand your professional horizons beyond anything you previously thought possible.

    The Entrepreneurship & Innovation Major provides you with an exhilarating sense of exploration.

What I enjoyed the most was the genuine enthusiasm of the professors and the way in which it energizes you. The combination of outstanding entrepreneurial knowledge and a fabulous network has provided me with some really useful material and contacts.

Read the story behind Homy+
Karim SAYEGH, President & Co-Founder of Homy+ and Former Head of Transformation for Market Activities, Global Technology Services at the Société Générale

The Capstone Project gave me the opportunity to assess the feasibility of creating my own start-up, Homy+, which aims to provide communication and organization solutions for the home. During the project, I developed all the aspects of the strategic approach - applying everything I had learned at HEC Paris. This enabled me to analyze the feasibility of the project before deciding to launch. The Capstone Project played a vital role in determining if I would go ahead with Homy+. The company was officially set up in February 2014, just 6 months after the validation by the jury!

I learned a lot from this experience and I now fully understand all the key concepts that were taught during the EMBA program. I especially appreciated the rich and exciting exchanges with my advisor, Sébastien Martin, and the strong working relationship I developed with my Capstone project partner.

My advisor really challenged me throughout the project. He fully understood the impact that the capstone project would have on my life - and that of my family. He made sure I had all the essential elements at my disposal to take the final decision. In the end, the project totally transformed me. My dream was to launch a business venture and thanks to the HEC Paris Executive MBA and the Capstone Project this is now a reality. My new dream is to make sure that this venture is a success!

Discover the entrepreneurial story of Valéry Bollier
Valéry Bollier, CEO and co-founder of Oulala Games

I have been working in the Digital industry for almost 20 years and was the CMO and a shareholder of a well-known French betting site for horse racing. I joined the HEC Paris EMBA program to upgrade my theoretical knowledge and to confront my business ideas with a fast-changing and more complex world. The EMBA gave me the unique opportunity to thoroughly analyze the launch of the first phase of my new start up - Oulala Games - whilst preparing the launch of the second one (which will include our first external fund-raising campaign).

Each class was a direct opportunity for me to challenge every single aspect of the development and strategy of Oulala. I probably got a bit more than the other participants from the program because I asked all the professors very specific questions about my start-up. I particularly appreciated the impressive quality and diversity of the speakers and the professors.

Being able to attend some courses in a famous American university was truly stimulating. My best memory of the program, apart from swimming in the Google balls pool at their headquarters, was the day we attended Geoffrey Moore’s class. I have read most of his books, and being able to talk to him about my company project was incredible. He gave me some really precious advice. Thank you HEC Paris!
