A look back at May Foundation

May was an eventful month for the EM Normandie Business School Foundation, which was involved in a number of initiatives, particularly in support of students and entrepreneurship, one of its three key areas of focus. 

ALUMNI 2024 Pépites evening (16 May): Supporting the entrepreneurial spirit

The Foundation took part in the Soirée des Pépites 2024, organised by EM Normandie Business School Alumni and dedicated to entrepreneurship. Mina Colonna d'Istria, Managing Director of the Foundation, gave a speech on the Foundation's three priorities, highlighting entrepreneurship and innovation scholarships. She was joined by Emrick Linsden, a former student of the class of 2023 and a Foundation scholarship holder, who is now co-founder of the Munemjo Entertainment start-up.
