Vitality in the Economy: The Launch of the Guide "Entrepreneurship in Cambodia" Brings Together Key Players

Phnom Penh, French Embassy – It was an evening as we love under the tropics: chic, but without fuss. The event organized by the CCI France Cambodia (CCIFC) for the launch of the 2025-2026 edition of the guide "Entrepreneurship in Cambodia" was held in the idyllic setting of the French Embassy.

The soft lights of the gardens, with an exceptional setting, offered an ideal atmosphere for exchanges. Far from long speeches, the emphasis was on conviviality and concrete conversations among professionals.

Throughout the evening, faces embodying the dynamism of the French Touch in Cambodia succeeded one another. The president of the CCIFC, Cyril Girot, opened the ceremony by presenting this new tool, which he described as an essential compass for navigating the local market.

He was followed by the warm welcome words of the French Ambassador, Mr. Olivier Richard, who praised the boldness of French investors and recalled France's commitment to supporting the business community in Cambodia.

Among the many guests were prominent personalities such as Arnaud Darc, CEO of Groupe Thalias and president of the foreign trade advisers of France in Cambodia, a true pillar of the business community, who had extensive exchanges with the young generation of entrepreneurs. The atmosphere reflected the spirit of the guide: optimistic and resolutely forward-looking.

Around an excellent cocktail, discussions were lively: innovative projects, feedback, and promising encounters took place in a warm ambiance. More than just a book launch, it was a privileged moment where the Franco-Cambodian community reaffirmed its dynamism and spirit of collaboration. An elegant success, showing that doing business in Cambodia also goes hand in hand with the pleasure of being in good company.
