The building was officially inaugurated by Pierre-Alain VIELVOYE – President of the Group Adéo (sponsor of the ceremony), Marc DELOZANNE – Chairman of the IÉSEG Board of Trustees, and Jean-Philippe AMMEUX – Director of IÉSEG.

The event was also marked by the opening of the “Wall of fame” in the building, which highlights the School’s corporate partners that contribute significantly to the School’s long-term development, for example through the recruitment of our students, or the co-development of applied research projects and chairs, and the development of programs.

Members of the IÉSEG community also had the opportunity to view an exhibition of the 25 photos that were selected for the final of the IÉSEG photo competition. These photos were taken by students, staff and alumni from the School, who had been invited to submit photos that represent one of IÉSEG  five core values highlighted by the acronym ARISE: Accomplishment, Responsibility, Integrity, Solidarity and Engagement.

During the inauguration, all guests were then able to vote for their favorite photos for each value, in order to select a winner for each category.
