About us
EDHEC Business School was founded in Lille in 1906 by industrialists with humanist values. Operating as a higher education institution with a not-for-profit status, EDHEC is administered by various governance bodies intent on preserving our identity and ensuring our prosperity.
Entrepreneurship
Since its foundation by industrialists in northern France in 1906, EDHEC has trained generations of agile and creative entrepreneurs and managers with the desire to think outside the box. True to the humanist vision of its founders, EDHEC set up the Centre for Responsible Entrepreneurship in 2022, in order to make a positive impact on society, the economy and the places where people live.
Internationalisation
EDHEC wants the whole of the School’s community to be open to the world and has consequently forged a rich portfolio of partnerships with prestigious universities and schools around the globe.

The EDHEC Foundation
EDHEC Giving, the EDHEC Business School Foundation, provides financial assistance to students who need it to continue their studies. It also plays a part in developing the School by funding research of practical use for society and business or high-impact initiatives focused on areas like entrepreneurship.
