As a student association, our key mission is to support students during their time at university, whilst also providing them with opportunities to enter the professional world. With the increased use of digital tools such as ‘Microsoft Teams’ and ‘ZOOM’, ANESEC has moved from physical to remote, offering its events in a virtual format and supporting students as much as possible while ensuring the contact between future graduates and the professional world in Luxembourg. Due to the cancellation of our REE student fair, our

Economics (ANESEC) was founded in the early 80’s. In 1994, the ANESEC was officially registered and adopted a non-profit association status. ANESEC is co-founder of the Fondation des Universitaires en Sciences Economiques (FUSE) and serves as an advisory member to the Association des Cercles Luxembourgeois (ACEL). Today the association is the only national organization representing the interests of Luxembourg business and economics students from all over Europe. The association is managed by a board of approximately 10 representatives exercising their mandate as volunteers and for the good of its member students.
ANESEC has three main priorities: In a first instance, we guide and assist high school
tween students and professionals to help former means that we organize several yearly events where students get the opportunity to network with our partners. During these events we offer a variety of opportunities such as, individual speed meetings with partners, professional headshots for LinkedIn and resumes, workshops, networking possibilities and many more. These events help students land internships and/or find a first entry level position. Lastly, we organize several informal networking events to bring students closer together and thus create a network. This enables students to share their experience around some food and drinks. These events, bring ANESEC alumni’s and current students closer together and give them the opportunity to exchange and create interesting connections.
students in their decision-making process for higher education studies in our field of interest. As a student organization we attend events from several high schools in Luxembourg and share our experiences with the students. We thus, explain the different requirements needed to attend certain universities across different countries. We also encourage students to reach out to us during the year for any further assistance they might need. To enhance the latter, we launched our very first Primaner Box this year, which includes several gadgets and contact information sheet for students to reach out to us at any time.
To sum up, ANESEC is here to help students from the moment they start thinking about university to the day they land a job.

Your greatest ANESEC memory First meeting „Rencontre Entreprises-Etudiants“ in Walferdange
How did ANESEC contribute to your professional career? “ I realized very early that it is of utmost importance to build your own network, establish relationships with all kinds of decision makers, to signal your interests and competences. Organizing events, making speeches etc. are tasks, which are very valuable in your professional life. “
What is one piece of advice you would like to share with younger students? “ Cultivate a free, critical, rational and independent mind. Don’t be afraid to speak up. Develop a sense of purpose; aim at a great vision for you and society. ”

Your greatest ANESEC memory The 25th anniversary of ANESEC in 2007/08
Why did you join ANESEC? “ … well, I was recruited in a pub in Strasbourg by Christian Lamesch, president 2004/05. At the beginning it was a bit like a start-up. At our first REE we only had 6 companies participating, 3 year later we already had 22 companies! ”
How did ANESEC contribute to your professional career? “ The annual REE allowed privileged contacts to an important number of employers. So that, up to now, I never had to write any job application. ”

“ I wish I had known more about entrepreneurial skills
to try out different fields of expertise, take risks and gain experience abroad. If possible, choose a job that matches your true interests and motivations. Do not immediately follow what society, your parents or any other mentor wants for you. Economics and business allow you to work in many different industries, so be curious and go explore. Another important aspect for me is to understand what impact your work has on society and environment. I strongly advise to find a job which objectives and values you share and understand. Anything you do today contributes to the landscape of tomorrow, even though you might not realise it at first. ”

and possibilities. My knowledge was very narrow and stereotypical about entrepreneurship and I think it is a fascinating option to consider. Again, when you are young you can take risks, be creative and try out your ideas. ”

LET’S THROWBACK TO THE ANESEC EVENTS 2020/21

er-changing sanitary regulations. As every year, the academic year debuted with the general assembly, electing the new committee. Contrary to the previous committee elections which generally unfold in a chilled atmosphere to get to know the new members, this year’s edition was held online.

The priority of this year’s mandate was to retain and attract new prospective active members to ensure the continuity of the association. Hence, a great part of the budget was allocated to marketing campaigns targeting young and future graduates. During the pandemic, members enjoyed participating in online quizzes, webinars, and sports challenges.
ANESEC jumped on that trend and organized an advent calendar in 2020 and monthly Instagram quizzes with giveaways from local businesses. This was a 2 in 1 action, increasing ANESEC’s social media presence while supporting local companies.
In return, the committee decided to increase ANESEC’s social and humanitarian investment. After a first successful edition in 2020, the ‚Work Out To Help Out’ concept was brought back into life, combining sport and donation. Once per semester, an event was launched during which ANESEC members could share their workout on the association’s Facebook page or send proof of their workout via email. In return, ANESEC donated a certain amount for each taken workout to a chosen humanitarian or social association. All in all, the concept resulted in 2000 € donations to various organisations as ‚Ärzte ohne Grenzen’ and Pure Ocean Fund.

The greatest challenge of this year was to think of an alternative event for the famous ‘REE - Rencontre Entreprises Étudiants’ that was as attractive as the original event while meeting all covid sanitary measures. To be on the safe side, the committee decided to switch to an online edition that would be launched under the concept of speed meetings. Instead of members walking from one partner stand to the next one in the Chambre de commerce, as was usually the case, students would switch from one skype meeting to the next one.
After the great success of speed meetings between members and partners, ANESEC decided to reiterate the event but at a larger scale. The ‘Business Week’, organised in April, was made up of partner networking events as well as an intermediate and an advanced excel workshop. The whole was round up by surprise networking boxes which were filled with gadgets dependent on the companies each member decided to sign up for, ANESEC goodies as well as soft drinks and snacks.
Lastly, ANESEC took part in two events organised by key players in the Luxembourg economy: A virtual round table with the Ministry of the Economy Franz Fayot and a listening session with the BCL about the review of the ECB’s monetary policy strategy. In conclusion, considering the sanitary circumstances, ANESEC tried its best to offer its members a wide range of activities and online events. Taking into account the feedback of partners and members, it was all in all a successful academic year.

THANK YOU
To finish, we would like to express our gratitude to everyone who contributed to this year’s brochure. Foremost, a big shoutout to this year’s committee, for all their work and dedication to the organization. Despite the challenges we faced, we are proud of our work and commitment. Also, we would like to thank our dear alumnis, who featured in this newsletter. It is truly amazing to have such a great network to count on. We appreciate the time you dedicated to our organisation. Next, we would like to thank all our members and students that participated in this year’s events. Your interest and feedback are crucial to ANESEC’s development. To finish we would like to thank our amazing partners for trusting and supporting us throughout the year. Without their support ANESEC would not be able to organize all these events and be what it is today. Thank you to everyone who contributes to ANESEC’s success and what the organization stands for today. YOUR ANESEC COMMITTEE
