Territoires d’industrie & Rebond Industriel: a strategy for the industrial future of territories

The Territoires d’industrie program is a national scheme launched in 2018 and renewed in 2023
by the President of the Republic, with the aim of reindustrializing territories and making
France the champion of green industry in Europe. It is based on a strong mobilization of elected representatives, industrialists and government services, as close as possible to local needs.
Certified in 2023, the Clermont Arverne Industrie territory, supported by Clermont Auvergne Métropole and Mond’Arverne Communauté, is presided over by a pair of elected representatives and industrialists: Olivier Bianchi, President of Clermont Auvergne Métropole, and Florent Menegaux, President of the Michelin Group.
