Franco-German Dialogue at the Highest Level
Last week, our CEO Martin Schöner had the pleasure of attending LE CONGRÈS 2025, a distinguished annual gathering of Managing Directors from French subsidiaries in Germany. This year’s event took place at the impressive headquarters of L’Oréal Germany and was exceptionally organised by vif Solutions.
The event offered a great opportunity for direct exchange among a handpicked group of senior executives. Discussions focused on the evolving collaboration between Germany and France, touching on future projects at the political, industrial, and technological levels. Alongside strategic dialogues and insightful perspectives, the atmosphere was defined by openness and mutual respect, values that align closely with our own at boTec.
What truly elevated the day were the contributions from renowned speakers, including François Delattre, French Ambassador to Germany, Prof. Marcel Fratzscher from the German Institute for Economic Research, Isabelle Chevelard, CEO of TARGOBANK, Julie Huguet from French Tech, and Robert Habeck, former German Federal Minister for Economic Affairs. Their insights set the stage for thoughtful reflection on Europe’s industrial future.
The evening concluded with the French Tech Awards Ceremony, recognising innovation and entrepreneurship within the Franco-German ecosystem, a fitting finale to an inspiring day.
For us at boTec, participating in such a forward-looking environment reflects both our daily reality across our sites in Wiesbaden and Annecy, and our long-term commitment to digital transformation in European industry. We extend our thanks to vif Solutions and all participants and look forward to turning these connections into action.
