GRADUATION CEREMONY CLASS 2024
A Timeless Moment in a Historic Setting
Saturday, March 22, 2025, will forever be etched in our memories. After five years filled with dedication, doubt, growth, friendship, and ambition, the Class of 2024 from EBS Paris closed a defining chapter of their student lives.
The setting? Château de Ferrières, a stunning gem of French heritage located just east of Paris. For one day, its grandeur became the stage for a truly unforgettable celebration.
✨ A Ceremony Worthy of a Generation
This was more than a graduation—it was our moment. The moment where everything we’ve lived through took shape. Our years at the European Business School were filled with all-nighters, high-stakes pitches, international internships, coffees between classes, and wild projects built from just an idea and a bold spirit.
As our names were called, it all came rushing back.
Each speech highlighted our resilience, our boldness, and our ability to reinvent ourselves. The entire room was alive with that indescribable energy that only a graduating class can bring when it’s ready to take flight.
On Stage: Voices of a Class
That day, the spotlight was on the most emblematic voices of our class.
Tanguy, Théodore, Emeline, Alexis, and Lisa each took the stage to share personal memories from these intense five years—mixing heartfelt anecdotes, playful winks, and words of gratitude.
They were followed by Marie Catherine PAQUIER, Dean of Faculty, and tributes from the program’s leading professors: Martine DEPARIS, Marc DU PELOUX, and Sébastien LEMEUNIER.
Our academic top achievers had their shining moment too—delivering powerful speeches about their journeys and the challenges they overcame:
🏅 Top of Marketing: Laure FREDUREAU
🏅 Top of International Business Management: Irina MIKRYUKOVA
🏅 Top of Finance: Emeline AVRIL
And the overall valedictorian of the Class of 2024:
🥇 Pierre-Hadrien ROZE
A Bittersweet Farewell
The ceremony wrapped up with a celebratory cocktail reception.
Families, friends, professors, and students came together to toast this major milestone—surrounded by laughter, snapshots, and a few tears of joy.
A fitting close to an unforgettable chapter.
