One of ESCEM's buildings in Tours.

The ESCEM School of Business and Management (French: "École Supérieure de Commerce et Management") was a business school located in Tours, Orléans and Poitiers in France which is now renamed Excelia Business School.[2]

ESCEM was formed through the merger between the business schools ESC Tours (1982) and ESC Poitiers (1961) in 1998[3] as well as EGC Orléans in 2012. With a yearly enrolment of about 2'600 business students, ESCEM awarded around 15 different qualifications from Bachelor to Masters level degrees.[4] ESCEM was a former member of Conférence des Grandes Écoles and successively obtained the AACSB and EQUIS accreditation.[5] In 2012, it initiated the project of France Business School.[6][7]

In September 2016, Sup de Co La Rochelle took a majority share of ESCEM.[8]

In 2020 ESCEM joined Sup de Co La Rochelle and formed Excelia,[2] a higher education group composed of three main campuses in La Rochelle, Tours and Orléans. It is structured as five schools offering programs from Bachelor (Bac+3) to Master level (Bac+5):

• Excelia Business School
• Excelia Tourism & Hospitality School
• Excelia Digital School
• Excelia Academy
• Excelia Executive Education

Excelia has 4,550 students and about 40,000 alumni.^[citation needed]
