The Regatta ESCP is a yearly event founded by Flavio Nappi and organized by a group of international students, powered and supported by Eventures. ESCP is both a high-level school of management with international scope and a large-scale European institution. It was founded in Paris in 1819 and, since then, has educated generations of leaders, contributing to the fine reputation it enjoys today. With five campuses in Paris, Berlin, London, Madrid and Turin, ESCP has become the School of Management for Europe. The first edition of the Regatta, was conceived as a way to unite the stakeholders of our school: students, alumni, and companies. The event combined the passion for sailing and competition together with a desire to strengthen the bonds between the School's five campuses. Since then, the project has grown in both success and size, reaching over 50 sailboats as well as more than 500 participants in 2019. Enjoy the networking wind of ESCP and sail into your future!

Our expertise covers the whole unsaturated polyester resins spectrum. Besides the traditional orthophthalic and isophthalic resins, we have created a very wide range of resins based on DCPD for a wide range of uses, including a bisphenolic version. There are also hybrids or blends that included raw materials that up to a few years ago were not used in the production of Unsaturated Polyester Resins. And we still produce traditional or modified Aliphatic resins that are best suited for the production of gel coats or solid surfaces. We also use products from renewable sources that can give materials unique characteristics and support companies committed to the sustainability of their products. For years we have produced low-styrene content (LSC) or low-styrene emission (LSE) resins with very interesting results. We produce styrene-free resins too, a kind of resin that is already in use for various sectors of application and in continuous development.
