Antin Infrastructure Partners (Paris:ANTIN) announces today the
appointment of Éric Labaye as Senior Advisor. In this capacity, Mr.
Labaye will leverage his long consulting career in the telecom,
technology and industrial fields and his academic expertise to
provide strategic advice to Antin.
Mr. Labaye is currently president and co-founder of IDEL
Partners, an advisory firm focused on development and
transformation topics. From 2018 to 2023, Mr Labaye served as
Chairman and President of École Polytechnique & Institut
Polytechnique de Paris, the prestigious French engineering
educational institution. In that position, Mr Labaye strengthened
academic partnerships with the private sector to bolster
public-private research initiatives and significantly increase
academic visibility and resources. He oversaw the creation of the
Institut Polytechnique de Paris (IP Paris) alongside four other
engineering schools and positioned it as a world leader in science
and technology and a recognized engine of innovation. He also
spearheaded the creation of six interdisciplinary research and
training centers on critical societal topics (climate change,
artificial intelligence, defense and security, health, materials,
arts and sciences).
Prior to that, he was a senior partner at McKinsey &
Company, where he led the French office as Managing Director from
2002-2010 as well as led the firm’s Global Knowledge and
Communication Function as a member of the Global Executive
Committee from 2010 to 2013. Mr Labaye served as Chairman of the
McKinsey Global Institute, its business and economic research arm,
from 2010 to 2016. In 2005, he became the first Frenchman to be
elected to McKinsey’s board of directors, where he served nine
years and chaired the client committee in charge of development
strategy.
At McKinsey, Mr Labaye served international clients in the
telecoms, high-tech and industrial sectors on a variety of
strategic and organisational issues and directed several research
studies on key economic topics, including growth in Europe,
productivity, digitization, the future of work and inequality.
Also during this time, Mr Labaye was appointed to two
government-sponsored commissions led by Jacques Attali in 2007 and
2010 that provided numerous recommendations and proposals to unlock
French economic growth, and also served as a member of the French
National Economic Commission from 2005 to 2014. He was recently
appointed President of the Supervisory committee of Future
Investments (CSIA) and as an independent member to Rexel’s Board of
Directors.
Mr Labaye graduated in engineering from École Polytechnique and
Telecom Paris and obtained an MBA with distinction (Henry Ford II
prize) from the European Institute of Business Administration
(INSEAD). He is a member of the International Advisory Boards of
ESSEC and university of Waterloo (Canada), and the Strategic
Council of the School of Public Affairs at Sciences Po.
Alain Rauscher, CEO of Antin Infrastructure Partners,
said: “We are excited to welcome Éric Labaye as senior advisor in
our ever-expanding network of industry specialists. Eric’s
extensive experience in transformative programs, digitization and
R&D topics will further inform our strategic decision
making.”

investment strategy is at the forefront of identifying areas that
