The emlyon alumni network reinvents itself to go even further, with you

The emlyon alumni network is entering a new phase of transformation to strengthen its impact and proximity to graduates. In recent months, several major changes have marked this dynamic:

• partial renewal of the Board of Directors of the emlyon alumni association and appointment of a new President, Vincent Leroux (MBA04),
• partial renewal of the Board of Directors of the emlyon Foundation and appointment of a new Chairman, Patrick Eisenschteter (PGE89),
• and the creation of an expanded “Advancement & Alumni Relations” department, headed by two new directors.

An expanded Advancement & Alumni Relations department

Inspired by the best international models, this new “Advancement & Alumni Relations” department now brings together the emlyon Foundation, one of the places where alumni are most involved, and all alumni-related activities. It embodies an ambitious, integrated vision of the alumni-school relationship.

At its head, Lucie Constant, who is also the Foundation's Managing Director, aims to make this link a strategic lever for development:

"Through the emlyon Foundation, which I have been leading since 2022, we have been able to mobilize a growing number of alumni decision-makers, successfully relaunch fundraising and activate intergenerational commitment levers. We are now implementing an integrated and more ambitious alumni relations strategy, at the heart of the school's project."

At her side, Lucy Bonnetier (PGE10) takes over as Director of Alumni Relations. With a background in international marketing, she aims to breathe new energy into the network's activities:

"Alumni play a strategic role in the school's development. The new dynamic provided by this department will enable us to offer richer, more relevant services, strengthen their commitment, and create lasting synergies between advancement and alumni."

A collective dynamic, with and for alumni

This new phase is part of a process of co-construction with the emlyon alumni association, whose board of directors was partly renewed in March 2025. Together, we have a clear objective: to strengthen the role of alumni in the influence of the School, both in France and internationally, and to make the network a decisive asset for all generations.

👉 Whether you're a recent graduate or have been working for several years, whether you're an entrepreneur, a senior executive or a retrainee: we're here to serve you, and your commitment counts. Let's stay connected!

👏 Congratulations to Lucie Constant and Lucy Bonnetier on their appointment. The entire emlyon alumni community wishes them every success in this new adventure at the service of our graduates!
