EDHEC Chairs


Corporate partnerships such as the Chair of Leadership and Managerial Competencies combine the forces from a leading higher academic institution with international organisations to form a centre of expertise in a specific industry or management domain, and provide valuable insight and know-how to both parties.

The EDHEC research chairs involve a close partnership to conduct research in a specific subject of interest to the sponsor and a commitment with EDHEC over three years leading to international academic publications and also detailed summaries and position papers aimed at professionals, institutional investors and regulators.
