Our exploration of the world’s super allocators would be incomplete without touching down in France, who have a lesser known but still significant SWF.
In this conversation, Nicolas Dufourcq, at the helm of the fund since its creation in 2013, explains its genesis, evolution and ambitions.
He discusses its principal activities and purpose to drive financing, innovation and “doing its utmost to galvanize the French economy”.
He describes the emergence of a strong entrepreneurial culture in France, how innovation can help power growth, the re-industrialization of the French economy and the ways in which it is seeking to be “the one stop shop for entrepreneurs”.
