Governance
A reflection of our professions
France Invest’s governance bodies are the guarantors of the growing diversity of our professions. They are governed by the Association’s bylaws.
France Invest has a modern, transparent and efficient governance system composed of a Board of Directors, an Executive Committee, a Selection Committee, an Ethics Committee, a Managing Director and a team of around twenty permanent staff.
