Local dynamism
driving economic success
Annecy is also the
leading economic hub in the Haute-Savoie region, the epicentre of the newly
designated municipal area and the “capital” of the département, home to a
number of prestigious industry leaders including Sopra, NTN-SNR, Mecalac,
Entremont, Maped, Dassault, Salomon and Fusalp. There are also remarkable
start-up incubators driving creativity and economic renewal. This incredibly
dense business fabric blends industrial and tertiary sectors, and is naturally accompanied
by sports and alpine companies. Last but not least, Annecy is home to flagship
hotels and restaurants including a selection of Michelin-star establishments.
Together, these gems have made the town a choice destination for corporate
travellers and foodies alike, while providing a budding and fixed source of local
employment.
In a word (or
several), whether you are a resident, a tourist, a captain of industry, an
employee or a retiree, Annecy has a natural appeal that wins over everyone who
experiences it. Hardly surprising! A breath of fresh air does us all good!
