ESIP builds its partnership with SMASH around a clear ambition: to give its students an executive-level education backed by recognised scientific expertise in applied mathematics and decision science. By joining forces with a research company founded in 1976, which became a société à mission in 2024 and has conducted more than a thousand studies and expert assessments in support of the ecological transition, ESIP strengthens its commitment to a training grounded in excellence, analytical rigour and a deep understanding of today's economic and environmental transformations.

This partnership takes concrete form through the joint design of corporate and executive certification programmes, delivered jointly by ESIP and SMASH Campus, Qualiopi-certified for its training activities. Designed as premium specialisations to complement an MBA or a senior executive career path, these certifications give executives and managers trained at ESIP a tangible opportunity to draw on expertise built over nearly fifty years of applied research — prospective modelling, the economic effects of low-carbon transitions, data analysis, environmental footprint assessment — directly applicable to strategic decision-making within organisations.

This proximity to high-level scientific research is a genuine lever of excellence. It exposes participants to a demanding culture of expertise, familiarises them with the methods and tools that shape decision support in a context of transition, and places them within a network of leading scientific and institutional partnerships, including CNRS and CIRED.

Through this partnership with SMASH, ESIP affirms its ambition to train professionals capable of understanding the deep dynamics of ecological and economic transition, mastering the modelling and data-analysis tools that support decision-making, and operating with credibility in environments where applied scientific expertise has become a decisive factor of performance.
