We are thrilled to announce the creation of “Turning Points – Aspiration to Inspiration,” a Research Chair bringing together Cartier, ESCP Business School and HEC Paris for the first time. “Research and education play a fundamental role in helping change existing practices and models within the luxury sector. As an international luxury Maison, we remain committed to actively supporting those who are addressing these challenges to inspire the next generation,” says Cyrille Vigneron, President and CEO of Cartier International. “This means further fostering dialogues between business and education, for a concrete and durable impact.” In this unprecedented collaboration, the Research Chair will deal with current turning points such as sustainability, new relations to consumption, generation Z behaviors, as well as preparing for upcoming challenges. It will open the door to exciting debates that will nourish and inspire the communities of both students and managers.
We are very pleased to announce that Cartier has committed to sponsor the ESCP Business School MBA program in International Management. This program does not only provide the students with the business skills for a successful international career. With over 70 young professionals from more than 25 nationalities across six different European campuses, it is also a unique opportunity to learn about different cultures which has been at the heart of Cartier since the very beginning. Arnaud Carrez and Amelie Portier attended the official kick-off event of the partnership between Cartier and ESCP Business School where they had the opportunity to meet the students. We are thrilled to partner with ESCP Business School as this collaboration strengthens our commitment to support the new generation in becoming the luxury leaders of tomorrow. We would like to wish the new 2021 cohort a successful journey.
Cartier President and CEO Cyrille Vigneron participated in a digital conference “Luxury and Guilt” led by Cristina d’Agostino, head of Luxury Tribune. While talking about luxury and “deconsumption”, Cyrille Vigneron explained how luxury can be positively linked with economic, social and environmental actions. To that point, he gave some examples of Cartier’s longstanding commitments to develop responsible practices and preserve biodiversity. This digital conference was the opportunity to engage with students from various schools and backgrounds on key challenges that the luxury industry is facing.
