Provence Promotion and its institutional partners Pays d’Aix Développement, the PACA Risk Management Cluster and the PACA Marine Competitive Cluster will be presenting the region’s expertise under the joint banner of Ea Eco-Entreprises and the Europôle de l’Arbois technology park.

Pollutec: A unique meeting point for the world’s environmental sector

No fewer than 300 conferences are being presented on themes as diverse as bio-sourced products, waste water, renewable energy sources or research and financing. Several TV spots are planned throughout the show.

The opportunity for Provence Promotion to underline the region’s commitment to the environment

With the creation of the competitive clusters (Capenergie, Risk Management, PACA Marine) and Ea-Eco-Entreprises (the association dedicated to the environment and sustainable development), the presence of the Europôle de l’Arbois technology park and the introduction of specific financial measures, the region has given itself the means to address the issues of the environment and sustainable development.

In terms of human resources, the region can rely on mine of skills and know-how with 300 available initial training programs with levels of qualification ranging from CAP (vocational training certificate) to engineering diploma.

Their presence at Pollutec will allow Provence Promotion and its partners to underline the work being carried out in the environmental sector and to present the cross-sector offer provided by the Provence region across all the sector’s many professions.
