SAPIENCE PARIS LAUNCH
- 28 May 2026
We are pleased to announce the successful launch of Sapience Paris, marking a significant milestone in the global expansion of The Sapience Network. The event brought together distinguished leaders and dignitaries from France, India, and Italy, along with support from Sapience colleagues and partners across the world.
The Sapience Paris Vision
The Sapience Paris team presented its vision to reconnect Europe with its civilisational heritage while promoting dialogue, innovation, and cooperation across cultures. Through projects focused on European urban development, the relationship between humanism and Artificial Intelligence, and the rediscovery of cultural depth,
Sapience Paris aims to contribute to a more peaceful and multipolar global future.
A Heritage Institution Plans with Sapience Paris
A highlight of the evening was the planned commitment extended by the Société d’Encouragement pour l’Industrie Nationale — a prestigious French institution with over two centuries of heritage, founded in the Napoleonic era to advance innovation, commerce, and national enterprise. The Society expressed its keenness to sponsor Sapience Paris and to actively support Indo-French business-to-business collaboration, as well as broader public policy initiatives across Europe.
The Sapience International School of Diplomacy
A major component initiative of Sapience Paris is the proposed Sapience International School of Diplomacy (SSOD) — an institution designed to train and mentor the next generation of policy makers, negotiators, and Chief Geopolitical Officers across geographies. The SSOD will offer a Master’s programme in Multipolarity, integrating AI-powered learning platforms with cross-continental cultural immersion.
The School is planned to develop campuses in both Europe and India by 2027. Entrepreneur Licia Mattioli who is very interested in the academic development of her city Turin, Italy has confirmed her help to identify a location and develop a facility reflecting the momentum this initiative has already gathered.
One participant captured the spirit of the evening eloquently:
“It was in the great tradition of the « salons parisiens » where philosophers gather to think about the world, where new ideas emerge… refreshed by the new wind coming from the South East of the Eurasian continent.”
Looking Ahead
Sapience Paris joins a growing global network — with summits and dialogues already conducted with public policy makers at the various legislative assemblies around the world. The Paris chapter brings Europe’s intellectual and diplomatic capital into this expanding conversation.
