What is Bordeaux Ambassadors club ?
This programme was created in 2007 by the Bordeaux Convention Bureau and now has over 420 members from the academic, scientific, medical, industrial and crafts sectors. These ambassadors are influencers in research, industry and economics. 50 sectors and over 100 special fields are represented in the Club. They represent Bordeaux in national and international associations, to attract conferences and seminars in their special fields to their laboratories or institutes. 22 conferences initiated by Ambassadors have been confirmed for the period to 2027, representing 97,000 conference days.
BORDEAUX, A SYMBOLIC CONFERENCE DESTINATION
Bordeaux is recognized for its innovative "competitive clusters" and its academic excellence in sectors such as aeronautics, optics and lasers, the wood industry, geosciences, health ICT and neuroscience.
The Bordeaux Ambassadors Club plays a vital role in the promotion of the Bordeaux Metropole on the national and international stage. The ambassadors are recognized figures in academic, scientific, medical and economic organizations within the region. University professors, business executives, researchers and opinion leaders support Bordeaux as a "conference destination", thereby promoting the city's attractiveness and reputation.
75% of congress come to a city thanks to the influence of a local contact.
