OUR HEADLINE EVENTS

Our four flagship events based around the French language (the Francophonie Festival), Franco-Chinese cultural cooperation (the Croisements Festival) the environment (Franco-Chinese Month of the Environment – MFCE) and literature (Fu Lei Prize) provide major opportunities for companies seeking to develop their network, increase their influence, and contribute to strengthening Franco-Chinese dialogue. And they could not exist without the support of our patrons and sponsors. Organized by the French Embassy in China and the five Consulates General based in Guangzhou, Chengdu, Shanghai, Shenyang and Wuhan, these events bring in several million spectators each year, in more than 30 cities across the country. In view of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, a series of events to celebrate sport and its values will be added this year.

DONGFENG PEUGEOT CITROEN AUTOMOBILE COMPANY LTD

During its 29 years of growth, DPCA has made a significant contribution to strengthening Sino-French economic cooperation, cultural exchanges and the legacy of Sino-French friendship. We are convinced that the Croisements Festival’s series of events will once again promote cultural exchanges between France and China and strengthen the friendship between the two countries and their people.

 

The brands Dongfeng Peugeot and Dongfeng Citroën, which originate from two time-honoured French brands, Peugeot and Citroën, are part of the DPCA group. Since entering the Chinese market, these two brands have gained over 6 million loyal fans. More and more Chinese customers love French cars and choose to drive them. This is our incentive to uphold the brand’s value, quality and customer service to ensure that French cars are reflected in the best light in the Chinese car market.

SCHMIDT

Since entering the Chinese market in 2014, Schmidt has seamlessly integrated French art de vivre into its identity. “A rich experience in custom-made furniture and French cultural accumulation” remains the cultural tenet of its brand, and the company promotes innovation and Sino-French exchanges centred on the art of furniture design.

 

For a long time, Schmidt has been an active participant in several Franco-Chinese brand exchange activities organized by the French Embassy and other institutions to further promote cultural connections between the two countries. Given their shared concept of cultural promotion, Schmidt and the Croisements Festival immediately understood one another. We are proud to be the official partner of the French Embassy in China for the Croisements Festival, working together to promote these excellent Franco-Chinese exchange activities to the general public.

 

We will continue to broaden and expand our cooperation with the French Embassy as time goes on, bringing our best efforts to supporting to these Franco-Chinese cultural exchanges!

Jonathan Koon Shum Choi Foundation

For three years since 2016, my Foundation has been a key strategic sponsor of the Croisements Festival. Not only does the Festival helps promote French cultural events in China but that also champions collaborations between French and Chinese artists.  In addition to sponsoring the Croisements, the Foundation, working in close partnership with the Embassy, sponsored the first-of-its-kind exhibition, “Un rêve français – De l’École au Salon” in 2018. This exhibition is the first that gathers two of the most important French art institutions, the Centre national des arts plastique and the beaux-arts de Paris, work together in exhibiting their finest collection from the 19th century France. We will continue to act through the Foundation to strengthen the links between France and China.

 

Dr. Jonathan Koon-shum Choi
Chairman

By gathering actors of different backgrounds, Croisements festival has opened new meeting and exchange spaces between France and China. EDF Group is glad and proud to participate to this cultural adventure that expresses the following values which are ours:  inclusion, respect, and dialogue. In China and all over the world with Chinese energy actors, we build great projects with the same ambition: generating wealth for everyone through diversity of talent.

Van Cleef & Arpels

Elegance and art are two inextricably linked notions. Fine jewelry and its search for aesthetics seeks to give fleeting elegance its timeless polish.

Since 2014, the Croisements Festival, a close partner of Van Cleef & Arpels, has promoted cultural exchanges and cooperation between China and France particularly through the visual and performing arts.

Van Cleef & Arpels and the Croisements Festival have worked closely for several years and will continue to work together to present cultural projects that foster the prestige and innovative spirit that defines French culture.
