INTRO — 5 In 2017, Lyon ranked once again among Europe’s most attractive cities. Today, our economic development strategy is paying off in terms of generating wealth, encouraging new companies to set up in Lyon and thus creating more jobs. In particular, we have welcomed an increasing number of foreign industrial activities and implantations. This was also the year Lyon showed the strongest growth of any European metropolis (+2.7%). This success was made possible by the 2016- 2017 Economic Development Program, an ambitious roadmap created in partnership with council chambers, professional organizations and the University of Lyon. We seek to remain the leading industrial city in France and support companies with their digital transition and energy transition, while preparing the industry of the future. Our strength resides in industries with strong added value and a young, highly skilled population. Our ability to compete is based on our exceptional know-how in areas like industrial engineering, clean tech, life sciences and digital technology, as well as on our outstanding ability to initiate and innovate. These strengths also encourage the development of new industries in our area, such as cybersecurity, insurance and e-health. Our dynamic economy, based on the tertiary sector and industry in Lyon, contributes to our attractiveness and marketing our expertise abroad in countries such as China. We have also made a major step forward with respect to the impact of our universities; our research and training entities participate fully in the economic growth of our city. Lyon was France’s leading city for students in 2017. Lyon attracts young people through its outstanding offer of training possibilities and the high quality of student life. The city’s attractiveness and economic vigour bring benefit to all. This is the goal of the metropolitan work placement program (know as PMI-e) that aims to enable everyone to find a job, in particular by matching job supply with the demand for skills. On the strength of Lyon’s economic drive and the diversification of high-value-added activities, the city is a breeding ground for the continued growth of employment! Together, we must continue our efforts and write the next chapter in the wonderful story of Lyon. David Kimelfeld

A FEW COMMENTS — 9 a word from Fouziya Bouzerda, 2nd Second Vice President for Economy and Social Insertion Over the past eighteen months, and following a favorable vote by the Metropolitan Council in favor of our program, Lyon Métropole has shown impressive dynamism: all indicators are “go” for company creation, implanting international subsidiaries, the number of tourist stays, traffic at our airport and sales of office and industrial real estate. This energy is, of course, characteristic of entrepreneurs who take risks, innovate and export, but it is also characteristic of those who support them, in particular the partners who make up the enterprising heart of Greater Lyon: the University, the council chambers and the employer federations. Together, we carry out actions such as investing in new sectors (engineering, insurance, security, etc.) setting new goals for the industry of tomorrow and committing to a pro-business policy. But many challenges must still be met, including support for those who have the greatest difficulty in finding a job. This is why we are carrying out actions within the framework of our metropolitan social insertion program, which is designed to increase employment. We remain confident: the entrepreneurial dynamic is solid and the will to work together is as strong as ever. With this firm basis, we can’t help but feel optimistic about de future! Fouziya Bouzerda
