City of Success

On November 21 and 22, the Collège de France will host the 23rd edition of the Cité de la réussite for the second time, with a focus on the theme of responsibility.

Launched in 1989 at the Sorbonne, the Cité de la réussite brings together, every two years, leading figures from the academic, political, business, and media worlds for two days of debates and exchanges of ideas on a deliberately broad theme, aimed at a young and student audience. Its primary objective is thus to foster dialogue between decision-makers and the younger generation.

The Collège de France is once again partnering with the Cité de la réussite to host some of the fifty debates and two hundred speakers at the Marcelin-Berthelot campus. The Collège de France will play a central role in these discussions through the participation of fifteen of its active or honorary professors, as well as scientists and artists who have held annual chairs.

Admission requires registration.
