PARISINTERNATIONAL VISIT TO
WELCOME.Foreword from Sadiq Khan, Mayor of London
Our relationships with our European neighbours and partners are more important than ever before and, regardless of Brexit, we will continue to work closely together.
London and Paris share strong trade links, with London receiving more inward investment from Paris than any other global city, attracting £2.4bn and over 9000 jobs over the last ten years. Paris, by comparison, is the largest European destination for foreign direct investment from London.

London and Paris are both leading centres for business built on strong foundations of innovation and entrepreneurship. Both cities have strong technology ecosystems, as showcased by the innovative Business-to-Business (B2B) technology companies attending this mission.
I am delighted to be joined by so many innovative companies from my International Business Programme. London owes its reputation as a hub of trade and commerce, aspiration and imagination to creative and enterprising people like them.
We look forward to meeting with key corporates and leaders locally to collaborate further and explore the opportunities across our great cities, and to show that London is open for business #LondonIsOpen.
