We’re proud to share that the first Divers’IMHI fund “Pierre Innocenti,” donated by the IMHI Class of 2001, has been awarded to two current first-year students: Sarah O’Toole (IMHI 2027) and Isabella Helton (IMHI 2027). Congratulations to both scholars, your drive and promise embody the spirit of generosity and opportunity that this fund stands for.

Today, 13 November 2025, France marks ten years since the coordinated terrorist attacks in Paris, including at the Bataclan concert hall, Parisian cafés, and the Stade de France. The attacks took 130 lives (90 at the Bataclan) and injured hundreds more. 

On this anniversary, we honor the memory of those lost and most specifically our very own Pierre Innocenti. Thank you to IMHI 2001 for founding this very special fund in the name of your classmate, and thank you to the alumni whose continued support turn solidarity into practical opportunity for the next generation. The best way we can commemorate this date is by investing in the future.

Pierre Innocenti (H01) was very appreciated by his classmates at IMHI, a great student who also loved to party, with a contagious smile. Passionate about board sports, music, and extreme sports, he was full of energy. After beginning his studies in English and Economics, he attended a hotel school in Switzerland before joining IMHI and taking part in the exchange program at Cornell University. Particularly talented in finance, he later took over, with his brother Charles, their family Italian restaurant Livio in Neuilly-sur-Seine near Paris.

Support the fund. 

If you’re able, please contribute to our Divers’IMHI scholarships so we can expand awards in 2026 and beyond. Your donation directly supports students who will carry forward the values of empathy, excellence, and service, values that feel especially meaningful today.
