As part of the launch of the EDHEC North America Alumni Series, we are pleased to invite you to an online conversation with Luc de Rancourt on the evolving relationship between geopolitics and corporate strategy.
In today’s environment, geopolitical developments are no longer peripheral. They shape market dynamics, regulatory frameworks, supply chains, and stakeholder expectations. What was once treated as “risk” now calls for a more strategic response.
In this session, Luc will explore how organizations can move from managing geopolitical risk to building true geopolitical strategy — shifting from a reactive posture to a more intentional and forward-looking approach.
This inaugural event is designed as a space for thoughtful exchange within our alumni community, to reflect on how leaders can navigate global structural shifts with clarity and responsibility.
– The session will include a 20–30 minute talk, followed by a moderated Q&A and alumni networking
– This event is open to all EDHEC alumni, regardless of role or seniority, with no prior expertise required
