The story behind the house
HEC Alumni identified the ideal location to bring all HEC activities under the same roof. It is a superb 412sqm space in the "Hexagon" building, located close to Covent Garden. The HEC UK House will allow alumni clubs to organise their events, and the School to host its staff, hold masterclasses with professors, receive student study trips and conduct executive education programmes. The HEC Foundation will also be able to organise events for its donors. For alumni living in or visiting London, opportunities for meetings and networking will be offered.
The HEC UK House real estate operation was negotiated over a long period of time and was led by the Committee which was given the power to carry out this acquisition by the General Meeting. Thanks to all those who contributed to this project, starting with Frédéric Jousset (H.92) who gave it a strong impetus and all those who worked on it within the Committee, at HEC Paris, HEC Foundation and at HEC in the UK, the House opened its door in March 2022.
The completion of this bold project in London adds a new cornerstone to HEC's international strategy and allows our network to reach its full potential outside France. Let us celebrate this important and historic step for all HEC graduates!
