Hear from the first E4S Master participants

The E4S Master program inauguration event

Expert voices In September, IMD hosted the program’s inaugural event, which featured expert panel discussions with inspiring guest speakers on topics ranging from circular and regenerative economies to blockchain technology and ESG measurement. Guest speakers included Resilience Institute CEO Benoît Greindl, Economics of Mutuality Founder Bruno Roche, OriginAll Co-Founder Margot Stuart, Richemont Breakthrough Innovation Manager Leo Daguet, Solvay CTO Nicolas Cudré-Mauroux, and Head of Internal Environmental Management at Swiss Re, Vincent Eckert. “You will become the orchestra conductors for systemic change,” Greindl told the 2021 cohort. “The Master is unique because it takes three world-class universities - EPFL, UNIL and IMD - and puts together something that none of them could do on their own.” ARNAUD CHEVALLIER PROFESSOR OF STRATEGY AND CO-DIRECTOR OF THE ES4 MASTER PROGRAM
