Tonight, 3,100 leaders. One room. One energy. Let’s go!
MEDEF Lyon-Rhône‘s New Year’s greetings at Salle 3000, hosted by PHILIPPE RÉGNOUX! The entire Lyon economic community gathered with all the key players and consular, economic, and employer organizations. Seven gathered tonight with MEDEF! Industry, services, finance, innovation, territories. Women and men who are entrepreneurs. Who make decisions. Who take action.
A clear message. The economic world is united. It speaks with one voice.
2026 promises to be challenging. Transitions. Sovereignty. Competitiveness. Talent. The challenges are there. Real. Numerous.
But when faced with uncertainty, there is a choice. Inaction or action. Fear or momentum.
And tonight, the momentum is there. Because it is better to be optimistic and wrong than pessimistic and right.
As Marie Curie said:
“In life, there is nothing to fear, everything to understand.”
Understand in order to act. Act together. Act now.
Never mind the anxiety-inducing noise. Only action can pave the way. The way to progress. To value creation. To renewed confidence.
2026 will be a year of challenges. It can also be a year of change. Provided we remain united. Clear-headed. Committed.
Together.
