France Launches Online Effort to Attract Business

frenchsite.jpg

Making lemonade out of lemons, France launched an online campaign, supported by print to attract foreign investors. Limit your workforce to 32 hours a week? "2nd worldwide in terms of hourly productivity." Stifle private commerce by actively encouraging French-owned corporate giants? "10 French companies among the world's top 100." The site generally makes a good case for a positive investment climate, but viewers with the level of knowledge of those who might actually be considering locating a firm in France would know that some of the claims are actually stretches of serious business liabilities - perhaps topics best left untouched in the campaign. Also, had they not been required to use all-French labor, they may not have made the conjugation mistake in their campaign slogan ("Where the smart money go").
