To energize its increasingly international network of Ambassadors, EDHEC Alumni has innovated with a dynamic online format—interactive, participatory, and truly inspiring! On Tuesday, February 4, more than 100 EDHEC ambassadors from all over the world gathered to explore EDHEC Alumni’s strategic plan, draw inspiration from successful initiatives, and access new resources to optimize their role.
Let’s take a look back at this exceptional edition of Ambassadors Day! A real success! Thank you all.
