Alumni of the Year

Since 2006, ESCP Alumni has been celebrating those who embody the strength of the network – the “ESCP Rising Stars” – through three categories: Corporate, Creators, and For Good.

Who are the 2025 ESCP Alumni of the Year?

Corporate category

Nadège VIGNAUD (ESCP 97), Managing Director of Coty France
Creators category

Ilyas ANANE (MiM 18), Co-founder of Vitable
For Good category

Pierre TUCOULAT (MiM 12), Co-founder of The Good Fab

Selected for their remarkable careers and global outlook, these Alumni become, for one year, ambassadors of the community. After an initial shortlist drawn up by the Communication & Network Committee, the 85,000 members of the network are invited to vote. The results are then revealed during the annual Summer Party in Paris.

To explore further, the full richness of the network can be found in the online directory.
