Our Mission
ADVISING PUBLIC AUTHORITIES
The CCEs monitor “sensitive issues” in foreign trade. At the heart of international markets and experts in their field, they transmit their information, opinions and recommendations to public authorities whose decisions they inform.
In partnership with the main institutional players in French foreign trade (Directorate General of the Treasury, Business France, Chambers of Commerce, Medef International, Coface, Oséo, AFII, etc.), the CCEs organize conferences in France and around the world. , regional seminars and symposia.
These meetings allow CCEs and economic decision-makers (French and international) to compare and transmit their experiences or analyzes on the issues of global trade or specific markets.
SPONSORSHIP AND BUSINESS SUPPORT
The CCEs pass on their expertise to companies, particularly SMEs, which they sponsor and can support on a voluntary basis in their international development. They bring their field knowledge and allow SMEs to more easily understand all aspects of an export strategy and to mobilize the relays likely to facilitate their international development.
CCE/company sponsorship takes place:
– either on a limited time basis (one-off advice, guidance, connections);
– either through a longer-term action, with the possible assistance of students as part of their training;
– or by opening their regional conferences, forums and symposia to SMEs.
PROMOTING THE ATTRACTIVENESS OF FRANCE
The CCEs promote France’s economic assets and encourage German companies to invest in French territory through the contacts they maintain with business leaders and German economic authorities and organizations.
INTERNATIONAL TRAINING FOR YOUNG PEOPLE
The CCEs work with numerous educational establishments (business schools, engineering schools, universities, etc.) to raise awareness among young people about international careers and share their experience (testimonials, juries, tutoring, etc.).
The CCEs also intervene on request to support organizations or associations promoting the installation of French people in Germany by sharing with them their experience as a recruiter.
