About this document
The October 2020 issue reports on the sixth Annual International Week, held entirely online from 28 September to 1 October because of COVID-19 restrictions, with photo highlights and videos of each session. Monday opened with the ceremony led by Professor Michel Kalika, followed by Jean Moscarola's conference on methodological advice for collecting and analysing data, Isabelle Walsh's conference on bibliometrics for literature reviews, and a faculty meeting. Tuesday was devoted to the Certificate of Research in Business Administration oral presentations and a meeting of site and track managers, Wednesday to thesis vivas and the Academic Committee, and Thursday to doctor-candidate side meetings and the presentation of the new books published in the collection. The week produced 23 new graduates and 44 research certificate holders, and the Managerial Impact Prize was awarded. The issue also presents the 2020 leaflet and new publications, welcomes new faculty members, gathers faculty news, media coverage and a webinar, and closes with publications, admissions and news from management research, offering a complete picture of an edition that maintained the intensity of previous years in an entirely digital format. Read together, the sessions show an institute able to hold defences, certificates and collective meetings remotely while preserving the pace and the academic demands of its flagship event.
