A region positioned at the crossroads of economic flows
The Nice Côte d’Azur Metropolis capitalises on its strategic geographic position between Europe and the Mediterranean to attract growing companies.
This location offers established companies direct access to European and international markets, while benefiting from efficient multimodal infrastructure.
Business leaders seeking expansion opportunities thus find in Nice an environment conducive to the development of their activities. The local ecosystem stands out through sectoral diversification designed to respond to contemporary economic challenges.
An economic structure built around priority sectors
The economic strategy of the Nice Côte d’Azur Metropolis is based on eight sectors identified as priorities: industry, tourism, ecological transition, blue economy, health, cultural and creative industries, natural products, and artificial intelligence.
This sectoral specialisation allows for the concentration of public and private investments while encouraging cross-sectoral synergies.
Companies joining this environment benefit from the momentum generated by the proximity of key players, whether startups, innovative SMEs, or established large groups.
This collective dynamic constitutes a significant lever for competitiveness.
Structured financial support to secure establishment
The Business Landing scheme offers substantial financial support to secure the initial phases of setup. Eligible companies can receive a grant of up to €100,000, supplemented by a repayable advance of €50,000, bringing the total potential support to €150,000.

Tailored partner support for each project
Beyond financial aid, companies benefit from personalised support throughout their establishment process. This support is based on a network of regional economic players such as Bpifrance, Business France, the Nice Côte d’Azur Chamber of Commerce and Industry, and other institutional partners.
A quality of life that attracts talent
In addition to its economic assets, the Nice Côte d’Azur Metropolis offers a widely recognised quality of life. This environment is an added factor of attractiveness for national and international talent, thus facilitating the recruitment and retention of human resources.
All these elements position Nice Côte d’Azur as a strategic destination for high-value-added companies seeking to accelerate their development in a secure and structured environment.
