ESCP Business School (native name "Ecole Superieure de Commerce de Paris") is a European school of management with campuses in Paris, Berlin, London, Madrid, Turin, and Warsaw. In France, ESCP is one of the most selective French Grandes écoles and referred to in France as one of the "Trois Parisiennes" (three Parisians), together with HEC Paris and ESSEC Business School. Established in 1819, it is considered the world's oldest business school.
The school was established in Paris on 1 December 1819 by two former Napoleonic soldiers, Germain Legret and Amédée Brodart. Germain Legret had opened two business schools in Paris in 1815 and 1818 but they closed their doors rapidly.
It was modeled on the first Grande Ecole, the Ecole Polytechnique founded by Lazare Carnot and Gaspard Monge, but was initially much more modest, mainly because it had not been supported by the state. Since the 1820s, the school had international exposure but it was not the only business school open to international students.
As the French scholar, Adrien Jean-Guy Passant recalls, other business schools as well as some polytechnics with trade departments welcomed foreigners from the start of the 19th century in Europe. It gradually gained in stature and importance during the 19th century and moved to its current Parisian location on Avenue de la Republique in 1898.
