Grand Paris campus

About the campus

In Suresnes, SKEMA Business School's Grand Paris campus is set in a unique environment, steeped in history and firmly oriented towards the future.

This prestigious site was once (in the late 19th and throughout the 20th century) home to the aeronautical factories of Louis Blériot, a pioneer of aviation. In 2002, it also housed the headquarters of Airbus (formerly EADS), a symbol of French industrial excellence.

Since 2021, SKEMA has established its modern and inspiring campus in this iconic location, at the heart of France's industrial heritage and "Made in France" expertise, with the ambition of educating the talents and leaders of tomorrow.

The campus covers 14,000 m², including a 1,500 m² rooftop terrace overlooking the Seine and the Eiffel Tower.

It reflects the three pillars of the school's DNA:

Innovation (through our research centres and AI activities)
Globalisation (with more than 130 nationalities on campus)
Digitalisation (hyperconnected to the world)

If you're interested in meeting us, visiting the campus, scheduling an appointment with a recruitment officer, or learning more, we look forward to welcoming you to our campus.
