The company environmenthas changed radically givingrise to new expectations, andneeds decision makers with adifferent profile. This is theworld of the knowledge eco-nomy.

Twenty-first century companies will needto be responsible, intelligent, adaptable

and innovative. This is the challenge ofthe knowledge economy where man isback at the centre of things.

This new economy means:> reinforced globalisation> a need for continuous innovation anda growing share of non-material elements,like brands, services and information,which will make the difference betweenwinning and losing in business> a greater need for education and trai-

ning to provide companies with humanresources capable of innovating andmanaging to keep ahead of new chal-lenges.

This is why knowledge management andinformation systems are two essentialcomponents of the knowledge economy without them, companies cannot remaincompetitive.

If companies want to activate these fac-tors of competitiveness, they must also

master the management of humanresources, innovation and the immate-rial... and they must not neglect theirimpact on the environment.

Sustainable development is now at theheart of company strategy along withother societal expectations. Companiesmust manage risk and social and environ-mental responsibility. This means exploi-ting their possibilities whilst managingtheir negative effects.

Our students will benefit from learning ina school where developments in theknowledge economy are central to theresearch carried out by faculty. SKEMAsprogrammes reflect our vision of tomor-

rows world, a world whose opportunitiesare yours.

Multicultural leaders preparedfor a world with shifting cen-tres of gravity, where culturesmix and diversify.

We live in a global economy where theeconomic and political centres of gravityhave shifted. We must now take account

of the total reorganisation of the worldeconomy which is being played out beforeour eyes today. The future of educationlies in breaking down barriers and mixingbetween cultures. Future leaders must beable to network; they must be mobile andable to work with many different cultures.They must know how to negotiate witheach nationality on his or her home terri-tory, adapting to each new experience andlearning to adapt to the next.

We will continue to develop our interna-tional exchanges with partner universi-ties, but we also wish to develop our owncampuses across the globe wherever

tomorrows economy is on the march; thisis because nothing can replace the directexperience of an internship in anothercountry. We think that this is the best pos-sible way to learn how to be truly interna-tional.Since September 2009 students have hadaccess to five campuses in France (SophiaAntipolis, Lille and Paris), China (Suzhou),and Morocco (Casablanca). In 2010, a newcampus in the United States will enlargeour students choice of destinationabroad.
