For the past seven years, France has hosted the Choose France forum at the Palace of Versailles, attracting large international investors. This annual event, often referred to as a “little Davos” by the press, has seen 180 foreign companies invest a total of 15 billion euros in projects in France this year, including companies like Amazon, Microsoft, and various pharmaceutical companies. This represents the largest investment ever made in the country.
Thanks to economic and fiscal measures implemented by Macron, France has become an attractive destination for foreign companies. The French government sees initiatives like the Choose France forum as essential for the country’s economic development and reindustrialization, particularly in key sectors like defense, artificial intelligence, and health. The forum allows France to gain economic strength at a time when the government is facing criticism over deficits. Business leaders from around the world are invited to announce major investment projects at this prestigious event.
