Connections, the regional development agency, investment and innovation in Reunion, was renamed on October 10 “La Réunion Développement”, in connection with the dynamics of the territorial brand “La Réunion”, initiated by the regional council.
“By adopting this new identity, La Réunion Développement intends to strengthen its visibility, as well as its consistency with the overall strategy of promoting Reunion on a national and international scale”, specifies the agency chaired by Pascal Plante and directed by Gilbert Manciet. Its missions are defined as follows: : supporting local businesses in their creation and development projects ; promote the economic assets of Reunion Island to external investors, by promoting the attraction of capital and talent ; supporting the internationalization of Reunion companies, by helping them conquer new markets ; develop strategic partnerships to strengthen the integration of Reunion Island into major regional and international economic dynamics.
