Created in 1871, the Ecole Supérieure de Commerce du Havre was one of France’s first commercial schools formed as a result of Le Havre Chamber of Commerce and Industry’s desire to train the type of staff local businesses and industries needed in the very international context of what was already a major port in France. A century later, in 1978, the Chamber of Commerce and the Port of Le Havre Authority created IPER (Institut Portuaire d’Enseignement et de Recherche), whose mission is to train executives and CEOs from the international port community in administration and management of port structures. In 1982, the Chambers of Commerce of Caen and Le Havre jointly decided to form the Groupe ESC Normandie and consequently to open a second campus in Caen. SUP EUROPE C.E.S.E.C, a strongly international undergraduate programme was to be based on the new campus in 1987. EM Normandie was formed in 2004 through the merger of the three existing schools. In 2006, the merger was officially acknowledged by the French Ministry of National Education that granted a ‘Visa’ and the ‘Grade de Master’ awarding rights for the new “Grande Ecole Master’s Programme”, under the official EM Normandie brand name. This programme is still unique in the French HE context as it offers access to a 5-year degree at three different entry levels. Accordingly, the programme may vary in length from to 2 to 5 years depending on the student’s initial level at entry. In January 2007, the ‘preliminary association’ was turned into a fully-fledged association, and was open to new stakeholders, such as companies and other institutions that could bring further impetus. Since 2011, both the transformation and extension of the governance have been fully achieved. Moreover, since the association was initiated, EM Normandie has gradually extended its portfolio of programmes, and is now offering in addition to its flagship programme, two Bachelor’s programmes, ten specialized Masters (MS) and MScs, together with a degree-awarding Executive MBA and executive education programmes. 3 Initially located on two main campuses in Caen and Le Havre, as well as a satellite campus in Deauville since 2005, EM Normandie opened two further campuses in Paris and Oxford, respectively in 2013 and 2014, in order to meet its growth and development of new activities. At the same time the school has extended its research activities, through massive recruitment of faculty researchers, with special emphasis on its fields of expertise such as logistics, port and maritime management, CSR, sustainable development, economic intelligence and entrepreneurship. In this context, two research and teaching institutes were founded in 2011 and 2012 (IDéT – Institute for Territory Development and InsIDE – Entrepreneurship and Innovation Institute), which enriched the offer by the school’s longstanding institute, IPER. Over the last ten years, EM Normandie has undergone a marked change in scale and reputation in all its activities. The school has set out to be one of the business schools of reference on the UK - Greater Paris - River Seine Valley economic axis. This positioning is original in that it combines both a marked international orientation and embedment in a local territory. The school is thus in a position to contribute to the influence of its 'extended' territory through its international focus. Accreditations In 2011, EM Normandie obtained the EPAS accreditation delivered by the EFMD for its “Grande Ecole Programme”. This accreditation was renewed for five years in October 2014. In May 2014, EM Normandie earned AACSB accreditation for 5 years. In early 2015, the ‘Visa’ and the “Grade de Master’ of the “Grande Ecole Programme” delivered by the French Ministry of National Education are renewed for 5 years. 4 2-Key figures Work force 2,846 students and business professionals in the degree programmes More than 470 participants in open and customised executive programmes per year 64 full-time faculty members and 4 associate faculty members 75% of faculty with a PhD 576 adjunct-faculty 224 staff members (academic and administrative) International Over 220 international partners in some 50 countries 700 international students from foreign partner universities hosted in 2014-2015 25% international full-time faculty 60 visiting professors from international universities 6 programmes taught entirely in English 9 foreign languages taught (English, German, Arabic, Chinese, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Russian, Portuguese) Research A research laboratory: METIS 3 main research axes: Management and Entrepreneurship ; Logistics – Land – Sea – Risk; Management of Cultural Interactions A sponsored chair on “Entrepreneurship, Project, Innovation” in partnership with CERFRANCE, leading consultants and chartered accountants association Corporate relations Close relationships with over 1,000 companies annually Over 450 Junior Consulting Projects carried out by students at companies in 2014- 2015 An “observatory of tomorrow’s employment opportunities and management pedagogies” Resources and facilities 5 campuses in Caen, Deauville, Le Havre, Paris and Oxford €25m budget in 2015 2 libraries and media centres in Caen et Le Havre A bilingual collaborative portal for students (SchoolBox) 300 PCs in free access rooms, 900 tablets offered to Grande Ecole Master’s students WiFi access, video conferencing facilities and video projectors on all campuses 5 3-Mission statement and vision Mission “Ecole de Management de Normandie has made it its core mission to meet the needs of the business community by educating young future executives who are able to efficiently address change and project management challenges, to display genuine managerial capabilities, and who are fully aware of cross-cultural issues and corporate social responsibilities. Also, EM Normandie has a duty to contribute actively to the lifelong learning of those employees and executives already in business. Through institutional research support schemes, EM Normandie promotes intellectual contributions, academic, applied and pedagogical, to guarantee high added-value in the learning process of its learners. Furthermore, to enhance its regional legitimacy and play a significant role in the attractiveness of its home areas, EM Normandie wishes to be instrumental in the regional development and competitiveness of Normandy and the ‘Arc Manche’ area (1)”. Vision EM Normandie seeks to be “an educational institution of undisputed standing that fulfills successfully all the duties of a Business School, servicing businesses and a wider territory”. In January 2013, EM Normandie launched its new strategic plan ‘Values & Performance’ for the 2013-2017 period. This plan enhances the school’s strategic consistency, notably its multi-campus administration, the implementation of active learning pedagogies and a contribution to strengthening core activities in Normandy in partnership with the region’s business community. This shows a marked shift in the scale of its ambitions and profile, thanks to major pro-active differentiations, such as innovative projects like La SmartEcole® and closer partnerships with Université de Caen Basse-Normandie and Grenoble Ecole de Management in France and international universities abroad. 1 Arc Manche is a transnational area covering the British and French territories along the English Channel. The “expanded” Arc Manche area extends as far as Paris. 6 4- Statutes and governance EM Normandie is a stand-alone, non-profit association (1901 Act), operating under a private law contract. While the business school comprises several governance bodies, full managerial responsibility is exercised by Jean-Guy Bernard, Dean, whose prerogatives include the implementation of the policy approved by the Board of Trustees. EM Normandie thus enjoys full autonomy in all its activities, in particular with regards to financial management, recruitment, marketing, academic authority over programmes (in compliance with national and European frameworks of reference). EM Normandie is managed by a Board of Trustees chaired by François Raoul-Duval, CEO of SCRD, whose role is to lay down the overall policy of the association, to submit it for approval to the general meetings and to delegate implementation to the Board of Trustees

  • Subnational Transnational Networking and the Continuing Process of Local-Level Europeanization
    Subnational transnational networking and the continuing process of local level Europeanization This is an accepted version (prior to editing) of an article published in European Urban and Regional Studies. Definitive citation: Huggins, C. (2018). Subnational transnational networking and the continuing process of local-level Europeanization. European Urban and Regional Studies, 25(2), 206-227. https://doi.org/10.1177/0969776417691564. Abstract One of the features of local level Europeanization has been the emergence of transnational networking (TN) undertaken by subnational authorities (SNAs). This activity, which received much attention during the 1990s, enables SNAs to take advantage of the opportunities created by European integration. However empirical analyses of TN are lacking, despite European integration and the wider context SNAs find themselves within evolving. Consequently little remains understood about how SNAs engage in TN and how they are affected by Europeanization pressures. Using the case of TN undertaken by SNAs in South East England and Northern France, this article finds that Europeanization has created more opportunities for SNAs to engage at the European level. SNAs have, in turn, taken advantage of these opportunities, leading to increased participation in TN. However SNAs’ approaches to TN are not uniform. Engagement remains marked by differentiation as local level factors, such as local strategy and political objectives, affect how SNAs participate in TN. This differentiation is likely to become increasingly marked

It also confirms KCC’s intention to maintain its position as ‘one of the leading local authorities in the UK at using its influence to maximise funding from EU programmes into Kent.’ The last year has also, of course, continued to be dominated by heavy pressure on public funding and budgetary reductions within the County Council. Such domestic pressures might have made it more difficult for KCC to maintain an outward-looking focus and international profile. However, the contribution of EU funding to business priorities and the identification of European best-practice and collaborative working to improve performance makes this activity even more important in the current climate.

  • Subnational Transnational Networking and the Continuing Process of Local Level
    Subnational transnational networking and the continuing process of local level Europeanization Abstract One of the features of local level Europeanization has been the emergence of transnational networking (TN) undertaken by subnational authorities (SNAs). This activity, which received much attention during the 1990s, enables SNAs to take advantage of the opportunities created by European integration. However empirical analyses of TN are lacking, despite European integration and the wider context SNAs find themselves within evolving. Consequently little remains understood about how SNAs engage in TN and how they are affected by Europeanization pressures. Using the case of TN undertaken by SNAs in South East England and Northern France, this article finds that Europeanization has created more opportunities for SNAs to engage at the European level. SNAs have, in turn, taken advantage of these opportunities, leading to increased participation in TN. However SNAs’ approaches to TN are not uniform. Engagement remains marked by differentiation as local level factors, such as local strategy and political objectives, affect how SNAs participate in TN. This differentiation is likely to become increasingly marked as SNAs respond to contemporary challenges such as budgetary pressures and, in the case of South East England, Brexit. Key words Transnational networking; Europeanization; cross-border cooperation; subnational government; English Channel. Introduction One of the dominant themes of research into European subnational authorities (SNAs) is the impact of the European Union (EU) through Europeanization (for example Barbehön, 2015; Benz and Eberlein, 1999; de Rooij, 2002; Goldsmith, 1993, 2003, 2011; Hamedinger and Wolffhardt, 2010; John, 2000, 2001; Kern and Bulkeley, 2009; Kettunen and Kungla, 2005; Marshall, 2005, 2006; Murphy, 2007, Oikonomou, 2016; Pflieger, 2014; Van Bever et al., 2011).

  • CAMIS Summary Report
    Région Haute Normandie > DESIGN SERVICE ON INNOVATION AND CLUSTERS FOR THE INTERREG CAMIS PROJECT Summary Report – July 2011 Context, objective, methodology Context of the study: This study is part of the CAMIS « Channel Arc Manche Integrated Strategy » project, launched in June 2009 within the framework of the EU INTERREG IVA France (Channel) – England programme. Its aim is to develop and implement an integrated maritime policy in the Channel area whilst fostering concrete co-operation between stakeholders and businesses. Four economic sectors have been particularly identified (at least in a first instance): Renewable Marine Energy / Marine leisure / Management of the marine environment / Sustainable port operations. Objective of the design service (French part of a Franco-British study): Carrying out a report on the support for innovation and maritime clusters in the 5 French regions bordering the English Channel (Bretagne, Basse-Normandie, Haute-Normandie, Picardie, Nord-Pas-de-Calais). The report is divided in 2 parts: - Presentation of the support for innovation in the 5 French Channel regions ; - Identification of the potentialities of maritime clusters. Methodology: three tools were used to support this research: - An online survey amongst the members of several French clusters having maritime related activities and located in the Channel area (in April 2011) ; - Around 10 interviews of stakeholders involved in the support for innovation in the maritime activities of the Channel area (Regional Councils / Regional Innovation Agencies, Competitiveness clusters, hubs, etc.); - Desk study based on a great amount of documents to feed the overall analysis and refine specific approaches, either sector-based or horizontal. Part 1: The support for innovation in the 5 French Channel regions Organisation of support for innovation An inventory of players enabled a fairly exhaustive assessment to be made of the large number of participants in the field of innovation .
