Training young people for the international stage
Promoting the French economy for the last 120 years, the CCEF is a network of 4,500 entrepreneurs and business leaders who voluntarily share their international experience. This network is entrusted with 4 missions:
- advising public authorities
- supporting businesses
- training young people for the international stage
- promoting the attractiveness of France
It is within the framework of its mission to raise young people’s international awareness that the 'Grand Prix de l'International' was created in order to enable young students to experience international business first hand and to give them a taste for the international scene.
Young people who are preparing for their future career can sometimes doubt France’s potential, which is why this ‘Grand Prix’ is part of a drive to restore France’s economic standing. It carries a message of hope, openness and optimism.
