About this document
The October 2017 issue offers a visual retrospective of the International Week held at the Château de Wiltz from 25 to 29 September, in the presence of Professor Michel Kalika and a large number of Scientific Council professors, among them Pierre-Jean Barlatier, Boubacar Baidari, Paul Beaulieu, Pierre-Jean Benghozi, Françoise Chevalier, Jean-Philippe Denis, Jean Desmazes, Ewald Eisenberg, Marc Favier, Thomas Gergen, Birahim Gueye, Jean-Pierre Helfer, Emmanuel Josserand, Eric Lamarque, Jean-Fabrice Lebraty, Sébastien Liarte, Ulrike Mayrhofer, Gaëtan Mourmant, Jean Moscarola, Caroline Mothe, Marielle-Audrey Payaud, Yvon Pesqueux, Fatou Diop Sall, Isabelle Walsh and Laurent Weill. The president underlines two facts about the week and its seventeen DBA defences: managers' theses generate managerial innovation and impact rather than being purely academic works, and the Business Science Institute is distinctive in that its DBA theses are actually defended. The third graduation ceremony brings the number of doctors in business administration to twenty-six and took place in the presence of Romain Schneider, Luxembourg minister for cooperation and humanitarian action, Michel Kalika and Jérôme Rive, director of the iaelyon School of Management. The issue also lists the agenda, new members of the Scientific Council and news from management research. A zoom section completes the issue with news from research in management sciences and the publications of faculty members over the autumn.
