Every year, our campuses celebrate diversity and cultural openness through exciting events. This week, during ErasmusDays, our French and international students came together to enjoy a unique intercultural experience.
Educational exchanges, academic cooperation and international outreach: these were the themes under which EKLYA School of Business welcomed a Chinese ministerial and academic delegation to its Écully campus on Tuesday, 1 October 2025. This institutional meeting marks a new stage in the internationalisation strategy of the CCI Lyon Métropole Saint-Étienne Roanne business school.
EKLYA School of Business, the business school of the Lyon Métropole Saint-Etienne Roanne Chamber of Commerce and Industry, values academic expertise in the service of education. As such, we are proud to highlight one of our lecturers and researchers, Laurent Dorey, a specialist in international development, who has published a book on Born Global companies.
Our students in the Master's programme in International Business Development recently took part in an international seminar in Leipzig, Germany. Organised in collaboration with our academic partner Duale Hochschule Sachsen, this event combined strategic learning, intercultural exchanges and cultural discoveries in the heart of Europe.
From 19 to 23 May, our students studying for BTS NDRC (Negotiation and Digitalisation of Customer Relations) and BTS MCO (Operational Sales Management) qualifications had the opportunity to take part in an educational trip to Bulgaria, rich in cultural, professional and human discoveries. Hosted by the Miniu Balkanski Foundation near Stara Zagora, the students explored a country with a fascinating history and innovative initiatives, combining tradition, modernity and openness to Europe.
EKLYA School of Business continues to expand its academic network internationally! We recently represented our institution during the 1st International Staff Week organized by Kadir Has University in Istanbul, Turkey. Over three days, this event brought together 14 universities from around the world to exchange best practices in internationalization, student mobility, academic cooperation, and research.
