Vice-President in charge of Cultural Affairs and Image of Paris; Olivier de Tilière, Vice-President in charge of International
Affairs; Alain Caradeuc, Secretary General and Pauline Wirth du Verger, Communication Officer.
The Institut Les Lumières de Paris intends, in particular, to highlight Paris through its heritage, its crafts, creation and
excellence, its tourism and, in general, to underline everything which helps promote the specificities of internationally recognized
know-how.
It also intervenes through the organization of events, conferences or awards ceremonies , in partnership with major witnesses and
renowned experts, to provide its analyzes, experiences and skills, in order to define, through direct actions, the issues and perspectives
on which it is already necessary to work.

(ii) | cultural exchange between the two major cities- Hong Kong SAR of China and Paris of France through the discovery of what the best of ‘Paris’ can offer. |
The nature of our institute is to remain rather exclusive, cultural and elegant. The platform entails two-way visits between Paris, and
of course other parts of France can be included, complimented by many exclusive local French activities in Hong Kong.
