Dear all,

For the past 7 years, Patrick Bouillet (class of 87) has headed up ESSCA Alumni. Over the years, our association has evolved considerably.

In addition to the annual Essca Award highlight, we've also expanded our events program, professionalized our communications activities, launched our foundation, developed our resources, set up embassies and taken part in the life of the school...

Well done for all these achievements, we now have a very solid foundation!

To build on the foundations laid under Patrick's leadership, I decided, with the support of the Board of Directors, to prepare for the future.

On November 18, I am delighted to announce the arrival of Stéphane Berton (class of '95) as Director of the association. Patrick will then become Stéphane's Deputy Director.

In his new role, he will support Stéphane in continuing to develop the association. These changes are intended to prepare for Patrick's retirement, which will take place in due course.

I'd like to thank Patrick for the work he's done and for the confidence he's shown in us by accompanying this transition.

I'd also like to welcome Stéphane, who already knows our association well, and wish him every success in this new adventure.

Finally, you can all count on me to continue working alongside you in an ambitious spirit. Our association and the school need our energies.

We look forward to hearing from you at an event organized by the association.

Best regards

Vincent Harel

President ESSCA Alumni
