What is ICoN?

ICoN is IÉSEG’s centre of excellence in negotiation research, teaching and knowledge transfer. It aims to create relevant, practice-oriented knowledge by means of precise, systematic and robust research methods and provide applications for students, professionals and organizations. The main funding for ICON comes from the foundation of Lille Catholic University.
