General Assembly

CCI France International Unveils its New Board of Directors

The 115th General Assembly of CCI France International was held on Tuesday June 28, 2022, at the Étoile Saint-Honoré Conference Center in Paris...

It brought together the Presidents, Directors and Directors of nearly 85 French Chambers of Commerce and Industry abroad (CCI FI).

The event was an opportunity to take stock of the past year, discuss with our historical partners and discuss the network's prospects.

On this occasion, it was decided to confirm the exclusion of the CCI France Latvia, the structure having failed to comply with the standards of the network.

After a transitional period as "associate members", three chambers have become full members: Panama, Tanzania and Uruguay.

The network is thus made up of 125 FI CCIs in 95 countries.

A new Board of Directors was appointed at the end of the morning. It is thus composed of:

• 15 directors of French CCIs abroad

• 4 directors of CCI of France

• 2 ex officio members

• 2 Honorary Presidents

• 2 guest members

The President of CCI France International is now Arnaud VAISSIÉ , Founder and CEO of International SOS. This is a return since Arnaud VAISSIÉ had already held this position for 6 years, from 2013 to 2019.

He succeeds Renaud BENTÉGEAT who held the Presidency of CCI France International for 3 years.
