With this event, Campus France integrated for the first time the topic of professional insertion and entrepreneurship in Africa by inviting about 60 French and African companies, by communicating in France with young graduates, alumni and professionals looking for opportunities and jobs in Africa, and by using its institutional partners, student unions, institutions and organizations supporting entrepreneurship.
