After having organized multiple successful trade missions in Paris and a French inbound delegation to Finland, Business Finland’s low carbon built environment program is organizing a final follow-up trade mission to France. The purpose of this trade mission is to create business collaboration opportunities for Finnish companies and get direct contacts in the French market. During the trade mission, Business Finland organize group meetings with the key companies of the countries’ construction markets, sales pitch opportunities, individual B2B meetings and networking event.

Participating in the trade mission will give you a unique opportunity to meet French companies in the construction industry.

France is one of the largest construction markets in Europe, and 3 French companies are listed among the top 10 global leaders in the construction industry (VINCI, BOUYGUES, EIFFAGE) with a combined revenue of 50BNS EUR in 2022. These leaders and the overall French Construction industry are sharing the same strategic priorities: carbon footprint reduction & digital innovations. Since 2022, ESG and EU Taxonomy push numerous market players towards sustainability goals, increasing the demand for low-carbon investments. Thus, France represents a major opportunity for Finnish low-carbon solutions.

Who should attend?

The visit is aimed for Finnish companies that have export solutions for low-carbon built environment and want to pursue France as a strategic market or partner. The participating companies should have products/solutions/services for:

  • energy efficiency and the optimization of energy use
  • low carbon building materials
  • digital design, construction, and operation processes
  • data and tools for managing both the built environment lifecycle and smooth everyday life

Kindly notice that participation is limited to 8 companies on a first come – first served basis.
