Les Négociales at ICD Paris: The must-attend event!

A morning of challenges

The determined students embraced the morning at dawn, greeted by Ron Evret who unveiled the first negotiation case : the Würth case. Armed with freshly honed skills, they had two hours to prepare before facing a demanding 4-member jury. The challenge: role-playing based on the cases presented, where selling the product to the jury was the crucial mission.

RECA FRANCE, our 2024 partner

The energy of the morning continued into the afternoon with a second case presented by Welcoop. The students, bearers of innovation, took up the negotiations, demonstrating their adaptability and agility in the face of a variety of scenarios. The networking, celebrated at a cocktail party, created a web of professional connections, reinforcing the community spirit.

Alexandre Relin, the big winner of these qualifications

The tension mounts as the points are tallied. Among the 16 qualifiers for the Grand Final, three finalists emerged: Pauline Mariau Perez, Alexandre Relin and Thybaud Pereira. Ron Evret, playing the role of a hard-nosed buyer, was the judge for this captivating final. In fierce competition, 2nd-year Bachelor Business Development student Alexandre Relin shone, taking victory with 191 points, closely followed by Pauline and Thybaud.

This epic day was just a preliminary stage for the 16 qualifiers, who now head to the Grand Final in Épinal on March 27th and 28th. Their negotiating skills will be put to the test against the best negotiators in France, promising a thrilling confrontation. The ICD Business School, true to its reputation for excellence in training, continues to shape competent, visionary future professionals ready to conquer the job market.
