This program, started in 2020, is designed to develop future leaders in entrepreneurship and innovation.
“As SKEMA continues to strengthen its ties with China, the school remains committed to advancing educational exchanges and fostering international collaboration. The 2024 Gala highlighted the importance of such partnerships in promoting mutual understanding and growth between China and France,” said Matthieu Dumont, director of SKEMA China.
