In addition, a total of 17 well-known French companies like Air Liquide, Saint-Gobain and Societe Generale will also attend the expo.

All the French exhibitors in this year's CIIE have established long-term cooperative relations with their Chinese counterparts and can represent the image of France to varying degrees.
