About
Our History
Three leaders. One vision.
At the France–India Business Council, our vision is to serve as a dynamic bridge between two of the world’s most dynamic economies: France and India. We are committed to fostering sustainable partnerships, stimulating bilateral trade and investment, and promoting innovation and sustainability in economic cooperation.
Founded by experts in strategy, innovation, and international development, FIBC was designed as an independent platform for dialogue, reflection, and action, dedicated to bringing together the economic, institutional, and entrepreneurial ecosystems of both countries. From its inception, the Council has set itself the mission of building lasting bridges between the public and private sectors, by encouraging high-level exchanges and high-impact partnerships.
