Welcome to ADVANCE Paris - the French connection to the world's fastest-growing Australian ex-pat network.
Like its sister chapters in other major capitals around the globe, Advance in Paris has no less lofty an aim than connecting France's burgeoning community of Australian professionals. Since 2009, we have been organising events and activities for our expanding community of Australians living in France, our French friends and international community neighbours.
Australians sit in French board rooms, toil in French science labs, coordinate projects for engineering companies, manage French art companies, run French vineyards, ..... yes, Aussies can been found in almost all corners of the industry spectrum across France today....
Through a series of regular business and social events and meetings, ADVANCE Paris aims to bring together this varied array of Aussie professionals. We have a networking series known as AYC (Advance Your Connexions) that is held every couple of months at the Renaissance Hotel Arc d’ Triomphe, our house sponsor for 2011/2012. This event series is growing into an international event with “spotlight speakers” who share their local experience, knowledge and tips in regard to living and working in France. Its also a great way to meet dynamic members of the international community living in France.
Members of ADVANCE in France are more than just "kangaroos" whether in the City of Light or in other cities or remote areas of France. They are ambassadors-at-large for Australia - dynamic professionals with a commitment in not only making a contribution to their adopted country but also staying connected to their homeland.
