Patrice RICHARD
Responsible For Training Progams - INSTITUT MARCEL FOURNIER

"The choice of this site was, in 1987, considered quite visionary. We wanted to create an exceptional environment that would 'deconnect' our managers from the day-to-day operations and problems that they faced in their stores and offices. Training in this type of atmosphere liberates people intellectually and Sophia Antipolis is an especially attractive destination for managers from other parts of France because of the climate. Coming to the Côte d'Azur provides a break that enables trainees to work in an atmosphere which balances reflection, work and relaxation. We have 3,500 people coming here each year and are one of the most visited facilities in Sophia Antipolis. But we couldn't function without the Nice Airport and the excellent network of hotels in and around the science park."

"Ascom, Swisscom, Thomson-CSF, IBM, France Télécom, Hitachi and Texas Instruments are among our active partners today. And a partnership with a new European telecommunications operator will be announced at our general assembly meeting on November 23...

We hope to put an even greater accent of the development of international partnerships, especially in non-French speaking countries. In the near future, for example, we will also sign a partnership agreement with the University of Helsinki."
