ESCP Turin Campus

The ESCP journey starts long before day one ✨

We were delighted to welcome 120+ future students and their families to our Turin Campus for the Meet the Turin Campus event, offering them an opportunity to experience the ESCP community before the beginning of the academic year.

Throughout the event, participants met professors, current and incoming students, and staff members, gaining first-hand insights into the academic environment, student experience, career opportunities and international community that define ESCP.

More than a campus visit, the event provided a valuable opportunity for students from around the world to start building meaningful connections, expand their network and take their first steps into the ESCP journey.

We look forward to welcoming our incoming students to Turin this September and supporting them as they begin this exciting new chapter. 💙

💙 Over the past two weeks, ESCP in Turin welcomed 139 high school students from 40 countries for the 2026 International Summer School.

Guided by Academic Directors Daniele Battaglia and David K. Reetz, together with Simone Marino, Luca Tarasco, Gaia Giambastiani, Silvia Dalla Fontana, Marie-Catherine Mignault and Alessandro Lanteri, students explored key areas of business through classes, workshops and team projects, culminating in the final pitches of the Introduction to Entrepreneurship workshop.

Alongside the academic programme, they met with the ESCP Careers Centre, connected with our Admissions team, and took part in sports and cultural activities organised by the Student Experience Office.

Students challenged themselves both inside and outside the classroom as they discovered what it means to study in an international environment. 🌍

As participant Josephine Doize reflected, "What stayed with me was the rhythm of the programme: learning something new every morning and putting it into practice every afternoon. It showed me how fast you can grow when you're challenged every day." 💬

Thank you to our faculty, staff and student ambassadors for making this year's Summer School such a rewarding experience.

Supply chains, AI, regulation and investment decisions are all being shaped by geopolitics, influencing how companies operate and grow 📈
