Aquitaine / France

The region
Aquitaine

Located in the south-western part of metropolitan France, the Aquitaine region is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean and the Pyrenees. Aquitaine offers a mix of economic dynamism, fascinating landscapes, and cultural heritage that contributes to the success of entrepreneurial ideas and defines a unique perspective of welfare and personal development. A leading region in per capita R&D investment, Aquitaine promotes start-ups and their potential innovations in the avionics, aerospace, composites, and photonics sectors. The region is also home to the world-famous Bordeaux wines.
