The inauguration of the new EHL campus, an event of all superlatives, the culmination of 5 years of work and the creation of 80,000 m2 for the multiple activities of this school of excellence. 5 photographers from Studios Casagrande covered all the facets of the event and animated 4 photocalls to highlight the guests.
This day of Saturday, July 8, 2022 was divided into two parts:
- The formal part of the ceremony brought together 500 guests, including the President of the Swiss Confederation, Mr. Igniazio Cassis, and the authorities of the Canton of Vaud, welcomed by Mrs. Ackermann, President of EHL, and Mr. Rochat, CEO of the EHL Group. In the new Oak Field hall, two student ambassadors "Maya & Louis" set the pace for the ceremony with official speeches, a concert and a dance performance with students from the Manufacture(https://www.manufacture.ch). The symbolic inaugural act then took place around a tree revealed in the middle of the water basins in the central atrium.
- A more festive part where more than 1800 guests, students & alumni and external guests, literally "heated up the campus" by living magical moments with multiple concerts and performances.
The common point of these two parties are gourmet delights prepared by the chefs of the establishment and served by a myriad of students. All in all, a bright and friendly day.
The Studios Casagrande thank the organizers for their confidence and meticulous preparation work that could be done serenely months in advance:
