Philippe BASTIEN

Head of the Events, Cultural and Creative Industries major

"After 4 years of work-study at istec, I decided to complete my school career by choosing the Event, Cultural and Creative Industries major for my 5th year. And what a year! It was intense and full of discoveries thanks to a diversity of fascinating speakers but especially thanks to the head of the major, Mr. Philippe BASTIEN. I remember a real solidarity created within the class thanks to a common project (Topics by Istec) which allowed us to mature our desires for the future and to give us the keys to stand out. A watchword: Cultivate your difference!"
