The Turin Campus, founded in 2004, is a young campus that experienced rapid growth. With the enthusiasm of a start-up, it firmly believes in entrepreneurship and the strong development of successful initiatives.

The campus serves both students - more than 1000 from 75 different nationalities during the a.y. 2024-2025 - with Masters Programmes and the business community, with a complete offer of executive education, applied research, and entrepreneurship services.

The Turin Campus inaugurated its brand new building in the heart of the historical city centre in October 2024, and it’s a hub for entreprenurship, finance, luxury and food & beverage, also thanks to its strong connections and partnerships with local industries.

The ESCP Italian headquarter became since the beginning an important opportunity for our business school to move further to companies on the Italian territory, which found in ESCP Turin Campus a valuable partner for the training of their talents.

These strong links with the business community are one of the key characteristics of the Italian campus: over half of its activities are with the corporate world.
