"Since my first professional visit to China in 1985 as a visiting professor for the first EU-China MBA program hosted by the State Economic Commission, HEC has continuously increased its presence in China and its cooperation with leading universities and the business community.

I am delighted also to have contributed to the development of a strong presence of Chinese students, faculty and guests from the business community on HEC Paris campus.

I would like to extend my warm thanks to all Chinese partners whose energy and openness have made this cooperation possible and have paved the way to mutual understanding and enrichment through shared knowledge."

Bernard Ramanantsoa, Dean HEC Paris

HEC Paris and the School of Economics and Management of Tsinghua University have created an exciting opportunity for Chinese and European executives to gain insight, skills, experience and contacts to define strategies for seizing opportunities between China and Europe: the Navigating Sino-EU Opportunities program.

 Highlights: The Advanced Management Program in Fashion and Luxury

China's ground-breaking Advanced Management Program in Fashion and Luxury opened its third class last September. The program, the first of its kind in China, is developed by three prestigious international institutes: Tsinghua School of Economics and Management, the Institut Français de la Mode and the HEC School of Management-Paris.

The objective of the Advanced Management Program in Fashion and Luxury is to prepare senior managers for the challenges in the rapidly evolving Chinese fashion and luxury markets. 

Partnership between Tsinghua SEM and HEC to provide a Business and Management Education to Women in China.

On September 15, 2008 HEC announced its partnership with the Goldman Sachs 10,000 Women initiative. 

The 10,000 Women program supports partnerships with universities and development organizations to provide a generation of women in under-served areas around the world with a business and management education.  This initiative is grounded in the belief that expanding the entrepreneurial talent and managerial pool in these economies – especially among women – is one of the most important, yet too often neglected, means of increasing economic opportunity.

HEC is proud to partner with Tsinghua School of Economics and Management in Beijing to support training for female entrepreneurs in China.

The program was launched on May 24, 2009.
