While many digital companies are drawn to Paris, we chose to open 2 agencies in Dijon. Many of our staff live here and love the quality of life.
Our clients and partners from around France are always warmly welcomed when they visit. They enjoy staying in our beautiful city and we make sure they discover its rich cultural and gastronomic heritage.

Arthur Deballon
Director, AVS Communication and AXO Agencement

With my two companies, I proudly work with local businesses and national brands on bespoke projects in Dijon and across Europe. Dijon’s excellent road, highway, and rail connections places it in the center of a region that stretches far beyond its borders.
I show my attachment to the region by supporting local clubs, events, and cultural venues through partnerships and sponsorships.

Jules Latil
Student, BSB

I discovered Dijon during my studies although I’m originally from Toulon in the south of France. It’s the perfect student town. Everything is within walking distance or easily accessible by public transport, with a wide range of courses, outings, and activities. I even had the opportunity to go to Lyon for my final year, but I chose to stay in Dijon! When I travel, I’m always talking about my city, whether to friends and family or anyone new.

Nicolas Vernet
Cofounder, Tease Production

Dijon has a rich historical and cultural heritage, and a gastronomic heritage that’s unparalleled. It’s more than just a destination: It’s a thriving ecosystem for entrepreneurs, very open and accessible. The quality of life fosters both personal and professional fulfilment. Setting up Tease Production here allowed me to benefit from an innovative and dynamic network that bridges tradition and innovation, offering exciting opportunities for partnerships and projects.

Loubaska

Originally from the Jura, Dijon won me over during my studies. I fell in love with it straight away. I felt right at home and discovered a vibrant, welcoming and gastronomic city. That’s why I regularly showcase Dijon on my TikTok and Instagram accounts.

Xavière Castano
Cofounder and Director of CSR & Public Relations, Crossject

I moved to Dijon 26 years ago at the start of my professional journey, and I’ve never left. Dijon is a magical mix of heritage, tradition, passionate and inspiring individuals, as well as the vibrant contrasts of fog and light. Through my company, Crossject, and various regional and national roles, I proudly express my love for the city I now call home.

Cofounder, Weezevent and Chairman, DFCO

For me, Dijon is a city rich in memories of a happy childhood and strong family ties. Knowing and staying connected to your roots is important, especially when they are as enriching as those in Dijon.
As the capital of the Dukes of Burgundy, the city boasts an exceptional heritage while being close to major economic hubs like Paris, Lyon, and Switzerland. As such, it is at the heart of a strong economic dynamic and continues to evolve while capitalizing on its rich traditions, such as the legendary Côte d’Or wines.
