On Thursday 7 December 2023, Mines Paris – PSL celebrated the School’s 240th anniversary and paid tribute to the entrepreneurial spirit that has always characterised it by bringing together several of its graduates, directors of major groups and company founders, who were able to talk about their commitment to the major changes of the 21st century.
Since it was founded 240 years ago, Mines Paris – PSL has been training engineers and producing the knowledge that is essential to helping companies meet the challenges of their time. Originally, the challenges of mining to produce the energy needed for major industrialisation; today, the challenges of digital transformation and ecological transition.
