A thriving IT cluster, recognized worldwide |
The region is ideally situated at the heart of Southern Europe, halfway between Rome and Barcelona, and in immediate proximity to large centers of economic development such as Turin, Milan, Marseille and Lyon.
The region extends over an economic area which crosses the Italian border.
An international crossroads, the “département” of the Alpes-Maritimes plays host to nearly 1.1 million inhabitants, 12% of whom are foreign residents.
Thanks to its international airport, the 2nd busiest in France, the French Riviera is less than 2 hours away from the major cities of Europe, Africa and the Middle East.
With all these assets, many companies have settled on the Riviera, gradually building a unique synergy of international skills crowned by Sophia Antipolis, Europe’s leading science and technology park.
The driving force behind the region’s overall dynamism, the French Riviera Chamber of Commerce is active over the entire territory comprised by the Alpes-Maritimes.
