Research Takeaway
Between meetings, an email. On the commute, a stream of notifications. In the evening, one last check.
Hyperconnectivity has become part of our professional lives. And with it, an idea that has almost become a given: digital detox is the answer.
But is it really that simple?
ICN Business School is launching Research Takeaway, a new event for professionals that puts expertise at the heart of the conversation.
The concept is simple: an expert pitch to spark the discussion, your perspectives to take the conversation further.
For this first edition, Jean-François Stich will challenge our assumptions with a question that concerns us all:
Digital Detox: Utopia or a Path to Better Mental Health?
What really happens when we disconnect? What impact does it have on our well-being? And when it comes to the digital detox trend, what do we actually know?
45 minutes to get straight to the point: an expert pitch to set the scene, followed by an open discussion to question assumptions, compare experiences and share perspectives. All in a friendly, informal setting.
No ready-made solutions.
Research. Debate. Practical insights.
And above all, knowledge to take away.
When? October 13, 2026, from 12:30 p.m. to 1:15 p.m.
Where? ICN Paris La Défense – Metro Line 1, RER E
Complimentary snacks provided

Research Takeaway
Every month at ICN Paris La Défense, Research Takeaway turns your lunch break into a high-value learning opportunity.
The concept is simple: an ICN professor meets with professionals over complimentary snacks to share and explain their latest research on the transformations shaping the world of work.
In just 45 minutes, you’ll enjoy a compelling expert pitch followed by an open discussion where you can share experiences, challenge assumptions and exchange ideas.
No ivory-tower theory. No miracle solutions.
Just applied research, constructive debate and practical insights.
A genuine opportunity to feed your mind as well as your network — and leave with knowledge you can put into practice.
