Testimonials
Technical skills
“At the end of a university course (bac+5) I was looking for additional training, provided by external speakers and in English, to better understand the expectations of companies. After two internships lasting 6 months in structured finance and merger acquisition, I joined Crédit Agricole Régions Investissement as a private equity analyst. This MSc has perfectly met my expectations, bringing me the technical skills necessary to access a first position in Corporate Finance.”
The opportunity to deepen my theoretical knowledge
Having graduating already with a Master in business law from the University of Strasbourg, adding the KEDGE MSc to my education gave me the opportunity to deepen my theoretical knowledge thanks to the diversity and innovation offered during the programme and to the quality of the speakers. Thank to the MSc I performed better on financial issues in my first job in the market activities of Crédit Mutuel Alliance Fédérale. After my success at the three levels of the CFA Programme, I had the opportunity to join the Crédit Mutuel Federative Bank in order to support and analyse external growth projects within the Crédit Mutuel Alliance Fédérale.
Multicultural exchanges with students from all backgrounds
“One of the strengths of this MSc is to access lectures given by industry professionals and to directly discuss with them. Our employability is reinforced. Another asset of the program is rich multicultural exchange with students from all backgrounds. After my internship at Crédit Mutuel CIC BECM, I had the chance to be offered a permanent contract. Being graduated from a MSc is an advantage for my future career within the group thanks to its recognition and international scale.”
Adapting the latest marketing and business tools to the art of conviviality
The wine and spirits industry is all about adapting the latest marketing and business tools to the art of conviviality. The MSc at KEDGE gave me much more than the tools I needed to pursue a career in the field that I love, it gave a me group of friends i can rely on throughout my career, which is exactly what i wanted out of this programme.
Practical learning and entrepreneurship central to the learning process
"I've always been very attracted to the world of digital, new technologies and marketing. Choosing this programme was quite natural for me. As part of the course, I had the opportunity to set up my own business with the help of KEDGE's Business Nursery, and I experienced self-entrepreneurship in natural search engine optimisation. I completed my MSc with a communications internship in the field of renewable energies. Just after graduating, I started working for Sopra Steria as a digital communications consultant on various digital-related projects. My advice to future students: take the plunge!"

Join the small club of the sport marketing business’ key players
“As a Marketing Manager, my job consists in developing the commercial strategy of the club. I supervise the Marketing Activations department for each partner in order to provide added and personalized value to their investment. Managing the partners of AS Monaco means being proactive, optimizing each association of image, demonstrating creativity and telling a real story to everyone. The ISEM was the shortest program I followed during my graduate studies but it is certainly the most interesting and the most complete of all. I met many professionals of the sector, got in touch with students who are now my contacts on different projects... ISEM paved me the way to the sport business and allowed me to join the small club of the sport marketing business’ key players.“

Can you tell us more about yourself and your background?
I was born and raised in Germany and left for England aged 16 to get my A-Levels. After completing school I enrolled at Loughborough university for studies which incorporated Economics with languages. As I was a good rugby player, I left for France in my third university year to play for the CA Brive Corrèze club in the French first rugby division now called TOP 14.
I wanted to get out of my confort zone and strengthen my skills with the goal to start my own company
" I started my career twenty-four years ago with a master in IT. After the University, I quickly found a job in a medical device company, where I had for couple of years some technical roles. Quickly after, I moved into management position. Last June, I decided to leave that company and after couple months of deep reflection, I started to define what I didn't want to do anymore and what I was expecting for my second part of career. I started the Executive MBA program for two reasons. The first one, I wanted to be out of my comfort zone and wanted to strengthen some of my hard and soft skills with the goal, at some point in time, to have a professional experience abroad. The second reason would be, eventually, to start my own company at some point in time. With this MBA programme, I add an opportunity to meet with great teachers and professors but also fantastic people from different and various background in various countries. This was a great experience so far after one year working with them, having fun with them, but also sometimes having difficult moment, because this journey is not like an easy one. If like me, you have a reflection of what your career will look like in the future. Do not hesitate. I strongly recommend you subscribe on an Executive MBA program and you will not be disappointed."
