Overview

Novancia Business School was a French Grande École of business located in the Montparnasse area of Paris, formed in November 2011 through the merger of Advancia (entrepreneurship) and Negocia (commerce), two schools of the Paris Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCIP). Its roots trace back to 1863, when the CCIP founded its first business school, ECCIP.

Novancia was a member of the Conférence des Grandes Écoles (CGE), EFMD and AACSB International. It later merged into what is now Excelia Group.
