Capgemini Invent, the digital innovation, design, and transformation arm of the IT consulting firm Capgemini Group, has inked a corporate partnership with CEMS, a global alliance of leading business schools, MNCs, and NGOs that prepare business leaders of the future.

Laurence Metzke, Chief Human Resources Officer, Capgemini Invent, said, "With shifting paradigms, tomorrow’s businesses, organizations, and society are going to look very different, and leadership styles will need to be reimagined to be future-ready. It’s important to empower leaders so that they can drive change through a future-oriented approach to leadership – one that’s more inclusive, sustainable, and collaborative. As the only network of its kind, we’re delighted to partner with CEMS to grow this outstanding community and accompany the next generation of leaders on their journey of creating a better future for all."

Nicole de Fontaines, Executive Director of CEMS, said, "We at CEMS are committed to our vision of preparing responsible leaders for a more open, inclusive, and responsible world. We are excited to partner with Capgemini Invent as they bring the right mix of deep digital expertise, transformative competencies, and sustainable business practices to encourage a responsible, future-ready approach in our growing ecosystem of future business leaders. We’re sure that our joint efforts will lead to empathetic, innovative future thinkers and executors for a better tomorrow."

As a part of the corporate partnership, Capgemini Invent will work closely with academia to enrich the CEMS international manager curriculum with its thought leadership.

It will also contribute concretely to the program via a strong mix of activities which includes skill seminars, business projects, internships, guest lectures, and more.
