What a way to close the Conference of Paris!

Today we ended our gathering on a high note with the International Economic Forum of the Americas formalizing a strategic partnership with Choose Paris Region, right here, in front of our community of leaders, innovators, and changemakers.

Baptiste Orlandini (CEO, Choose Paris Region), Nicholas Rémillard (CEO, IEFA), and Cédric Muller (VP of Business Relations & Head of Europe, IEFA) came together to sign an agreement that strengthens the bridge between the North American economic ecosystem and the Paris region.

This partnership brings our shared mission to life: fostering international exchange, creating opportunities for innovation, and building connections that matter.

In uncertain times, we choose certainty in our partnerships, in our shared values, and in our collective future.

Thank you to everyone who made the Conference of Paris unforgettable. See you at the next one !

At 2 PM, in the participant lounge at Conference of Paris, we had the privilege of attending a fireside chat between Mr. Guido Retter, CEO of RETTER Group, and Ms. Lorraine Goumot, Financial Journalist and Founder of R³ Media Group.

Mr. Retter shared about his company’s inspiring journey from a small Romanian company founded in 2006 to one of the country's leading infrastructure builders, driven by long-term vision, innovation, and strong partnerships.

Key takeaways:
-Innovation & sustainability are at the core of Retter's projects, with a clear focus on reducing construction's environmental footprint
-European collaboration and EU integration have been decisive in scaling expertise and meeting the highest standards
-Infrastructure as resilience: beyond economic growth, Retter sees infrastructure as a pillar of Europe's security and a future contributor to Ukraine's reconstruction
