Research Meeting #15


A company’s journey is marked by successes, but also by crises and challenges. Some companies face situations serious enough to require the opening of legal proceedings aimed at preserving their business activities, organising their restructuring and, whenever possible, enabling them to recover. 

These companies then enter a form of exceptional governance, in which the responsibilities of executives, power dynamics and the objectives of collective action are profoundly reshaped. 

To explore these questions, we will be delighted to welcome Virginie Blum, a specialist in the professions responsible for supporting companies in financial difficulty. 

Join us online on 10 November 2026, from 12:30 pm to 1:50 pm.

Travel Journal to the World of Corporate Societalization

In 2023, IFGE and Crédit Mutuel Equity entered into a research partnership focused on the role of the responsible shareholder. 

Over the course of two years, two cohorts of entrepreneurs and investors worked in pairs, sharing their experiences and perspectives as part of a programme designed by the French Institute of Corporate Governance (IFGE) at emlyon business school and the strategy consulting firm Prophil. 

The goal was ambitious: to explore the “Societalization” of companies. To conclude this partnership, a Travel Journal to the World of Corporate Societalization was produced. It traces the different stages of the journey and the lessons learned.

FNEGE Best Management Book Award

Emmanuelle Dubocage's book, Decarbonized Finance for a Sustainable Economy, received the FNEGE Best Book Award in the CSR category.

Published by EMS and FNEGE, this collective work was co-authored with Pascal Barneto, Carine Girard-Guerraud, Yves Rannou and Vanessa Serret.

The book proposes integrating carbon data into the various dimensions of finance, including investment and financing policies, banking, private equity, financial markets, ESG analysis, financial diagnostics, cost of capital, firm valuation, governance, institutions and regulation.

This award represents an important recognition of work driven by a shared conviction: the ecological transition cannot be achieved without a profound transformation of financial tools, models and practices.
