Board of Directors
IHES is managed by a Board of Directors, comprising a maximum of 18 members. Its membership consists of representatives of the State (the French Ministry of Research and CNRS), founder representatives, and individual members.
The Board of Directors meets twice a year:
– Spring session: scientific presentation, presentation, and approval of the previous financial year’s accounts, presentation of the revised budget for the current financial year, and presentation of various projects concerning the Institute;
– Autumn session: budget monitoring, approval of the following year’s budget, presentation of the various events which have taken place over the year.
