We are ESDES

From her time at ESDES, Anne-Sophie remembers… a sense of values and the ability to innovate. The passion transmitted by the teachers, as well as the groupwork, have forged a solid entrepreneurial culture.

I co-created Faume in 2020, allowing big fashion brands that we all love to propose a “second-hand” service. Faume takes care of all the operational complexity of the refurbishing supply chain in order to give brands the possibility to communicate on their offer. In one year, more than 20 brands have joined us. By 2022, the company will accelerate its international development. For us, the circular economy is a pillar of green growth.

From her time at ESDES, Victoire remembers…

The taste for teamwork and the spirit of cooperation: she remembers Fabienne Gautrot and Laura Servant Volquin who knew how to share their passion for marketing. Now she uses the project management and teamwork skills she first experienced in class at ESDES on a daily basis.

I have always been interested in law and legal matters. The Bachelor in Law and Management is the only course that offers a dual curriculum from the first year. When I was younger, I wanted to become a lawyer. However, when I graduated from high school, I opted for a business school to broaden my career choices and job opportunities, without specializing too early. Today, with ESDES and the Faculty of Law, I can fulfill my ambitions while at the same time shaping a different outlook on the world, and am developing a wider range of skills and a profile that really stands out.

From his time at ESDES, Felix remembers the company case studies he worked on in class: he thinks back to these exercises whenever he is faced with business issues (HR, development, finance, marketing…).

Wastes are a business on any markets where there are still wastes. Intern in a shop specialized in swimming pool materials, I just realized the opportunity to reuse, remake and renew the full range of swimming pool robots and motorized tools. We created L Local Piscine in 2020, with over 200% of growth we are convinced that the second-hand market will emerge as a natural way to equip personal pools. Circular economy is the key on both economic and ecological issues.

A program such as the one you wish to propose echoes our sector of activity but also our commitments. We are vigilant about our emissions, responsible in our financing by not financing any project linked to fossil fuels, but also by providing transparency to our clients on their impact.

Having a pool of young talent, concerned about these issues and with knowledge and skills in the field, would be a real asset, given our new ecological challenges. knowledge and skills in this area, would be a real asset, given our new ecological and economic and economic challenges.

From his time at ESDES, Simon remembers… a sense of attentiveness, sharing and team-building and all the skills necessary for developing your own business: accounting, corporate finance, law, marketing, project management…. We use everything: from theory to sharing experiences. Everything you need to grow!
