The International Advisory Board is comprised of persons, external to the Group, with varied experiences and of different nationalities. Its role is to establish an international vision of the Group and allow it to benefit from the experience of major economic players.

The International Advisory Board meets twice a year in the presence of the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and the Senior Management team.

The first meeting takes place in France and covers general themes, such as environmental management or research.
The second focuses on the discovery of a country or region through presentations by political, economic and social representatives or industrialists who operate there.
