Study in Dijon, Burgundy

Dijon is a city on the go. It’s constantly evolving. That’s why I chose to develop my business here, in city that’s on the move and developing in new ways, with a high quality of life and an environment that fosters innovation and creativity. I’m proud to contribute to this vibrant energy through my audiovisual projects and to draw from its network and local opportunities. Staying in Dijon is also a way of showcasing the city that shaped me and continues to surprise me.

I started working in Dijon in 2018, to open and then develop a new campus for ESTP, an engineering school specializing in sustainable construction. Dijon has the warmth of a small town but it’s a metropolis with ambitious projects and a vital, committed ecosystem which gets these projects off the ground.

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.

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.

I was born in Dijon and spent part of my childhood in the heart of the city, living on Place Grangier and frequently visiting Darcy Park and its famous Pompon bear almost daily. Later, as a student, the back-to-school concerts became a cherished tradition during the academic year. And now, I am thrilled to showcase Dijon and its many assets to the students I support in my role at ESTP, who come from all over France and internationally.

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.

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.
