At a time when innovation has never been so abundant, distrust in progress has never been so strong. The future, once a source of hope, has now become a source of anxiety for many. Yet it is still possible to restore a positive vision of progress, provided one commits to it personally and takes responsibility for it.

Director General of ESSEC since 2017, Vincenzo Vinzi defends the conviction that higher education and research are key to restoring confidence in the future and transcending progress rather than fleeing from it.

With a foreword by Estelle Brachlianoff, Chief Executive Officer of Veolia, this essay also includes an interview with Enrico Letta, former President of the Council of Ministers of Italy, and with Béatrice Kosowski (E87), President of IBM France.

A professor of statistics, Vincenzo Vinzi joined ESSEC in 2007 and became Dean of Faculty in 2011. He was appointed Director General in 2017. Internationally recognised for his expertise, he is the author of around 80 articles published in international journals.
