Summer Student Story

Camille Coorevits

FinTech

Camille Coorevits

Immersed in a dynamic environment of intellectual curiosity and ambition, I found myself constantly challenged to embrace new ways of thinking.

 

Recognising that staying ahead in the fast-paced world of financial technology requires adaptability and deeper knowledge, I was looking for a program that could bridge my academic background in Finance with the FinTech landscape. This Summer Program offers the perfect combination of academic intensity and practical experience, all within the vibrant environment of a top-tier business school.

From the beginning, it was clear that this course was about much more than just absorbing information. The curriculum provided a comprehensive overview of FinTech, spanning fundamental principles, complex M&A transactions, and the latest industry advancements. What truly stood out was the hands-on approach. We applied our learning beyond the classroom through real-life cases, interactions with emerging names in the industry, and a company visit to Paris to witness innovation first-hand. The interactive teaching style and the professor’s expertise not only made the material accessible but also encouraged us to think critically and creatively about the future of finance.

Beyond academic growth, the two-week module was a journey of personal discovery. The insights shared by the guest speakers emphasised resilience and innovation, inspiring me to develop a deeper appreciation for the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. Immersed in a dynamic environment of intellectual curiosity and ambition, I found myself constantly challenged to embrace new ways of thinking.

The privilege to connect with driven individuals from around the world undeniably sets this program apart. The diversity of perspectives in the classroom was both refreshing and enriching. Collaborating closely with my peers sharpened my teamwork skills, and the relationships I formed are among the most valuable aspects of the experience. The inclusive atmosphere on campus made every interaction enjoyable, and I left HEC with a broader network and a deeper appreciation for cultural exchange that I will carry forward into my future endeavours.

The HEC summer school was not just an educational experience; it was a transformative journey that equipped me with the tools, knowledge, and connections to advance my career and continue my pursuit of lifelong learning. Living and learning in Paris —an emerging hub of finance — added a unique richness to the programme. It was a constant reminder that FinTech, like Paris itself, is a fusion of the old and the new, of established systems and groundbreaking ideas.
