International partnerships

Through its presence on the international scene, Paris CDG Alliance is able to develop its network of partners all around the world. Its strength is to be involved in consortia of european projects but also initiating an international seminar for sustainable airport areas in close cooperation with Groupe ADP, all this faciliating its network development. While participating in international trade fairs, exhibitions and conferences and hosting foreign delegations promoting Paris CDG Airport Area, it also eases the partners’ willingness to sign special agreement (Memorandum of understanding) with the Alliance.

The SAAIS (Sustainable Airport Area International Seminar) brings together representatives from the major airport areas worldwide, renowned academic experts, elected officials and businesses, to collectively reflect on the concept of “sustainable airport area“ addressing all together economic development, social inclusion, environmental protection & sustainable land planning and heritage.

Since 2010, the seminar has become a major place for sharing experiences and debating.

• 20 airports areas worldwide
• 40+ speakers
• 300 delegates
• 10 years of successful editions

Discover the Seminar

This 2-year project brings together 7 European airport places (Maastricht, Berlin, Frankfurt, Barcelona, Paris-Orly, Paris-CDG, Brussels) and the Airport Region Conference. Financed by the European Commission/Erasmus+, it allows an exchange of good practices between airport places in terms of job accessibility by working on the perception of these, by anticipating the jobs of tomorrow, and by innovating on the theme of initial and continuing training.  The project is being completed in August 2020) and was disseminated through a webinar which brought together around forty participants in Europe (public structures for employment and training, airports, etc.).

A guide of employment best practices was drafted in English and then translated into 4 other EU languages (French, Spanish, Dutch, German).

Paris CDG Alliance can rely on  its network of partners to promote the structure. As a matter of fact, having in mind its strategic location for any foreign visitor arriving at Paris CDG Airport, Paris CDG Alliance is always available for foreign potential visitors and investors who are nearby and interested to gather information about Paris CDG Airport Area. The team is happy to organise a general meeting but also specific appointments and discovery tours based upon the potential investor’s request (available real estate, business parks,…).

Paris CDG Alliance signed some partnership agreements with several main airport areas such as Atlanta, Beijing, Shanghai, Taiwan, Vantaa. These agreements confirm the willingness to share experience and good practices, especially in terms of employment which can be transferred in other airport areas.

Some upcoming agreements are in the pipeline (to be renewed or new ones to be drafted with new airport areas).

Each year, Paris CDG Alliance takes part in those international events such as SIAE, MIPIM, SIMI EBACE, PASSENGER TERMINAL EXPO, SITL in order to meet its partners, discuss with international prospects and promote Paris CDG Airport Area. There are also sometimes some opportunities to speak during conferences which can be considered as a real asset to gain more visibility and therefore collect calls for interest from new partners and/or investors.
