Tourism: “We need to attract more French and foreign private capital” – Eric Lombard
On April 28 in Bercy, the French Ministers of the Economy and Tourism brought together funds and investors to accelerate the modernization of the French tourism industry.
🔍 Stated goal: modernize the offer, support the ecological transition, and strengthen France’s position as the world’s leading sustainable destination.
The event was also an opportunity for Jean-Marc Palhon, Chairman of EXTENDAM, to highlight the major challenges in transforming the French hotel sector and the relevance of private equity investment in hospitality.
💡 A strong signal for private investors, who are now called upon to support the upscale transformation and sustainable shift of the tourism offer.
