A unique opportunity
By partnering with the Pavilion, the aim is to convey to visitors from all around the world our values - boldness, ‘savoir-faire’ and working together. We are joining with our sponsors to build an ambitious and pioneering cultural, educational, scientific, technological and economic programme.
The France Pavilion is also a practical tool working to promote all innovative public and private stakeholders, whether they are large French corporations, start-ups, foundations, institutions or local councils. This unrivalled showcase is an opportunity to promote French players to international visitors.
Our partners can make a commitment either in the form of sponsorship or patronage.
Tax deductions for patronage: non-profit support (Article 238b of the French General Tax Code)
- Tax reduction of 60% of the donated amount, up to a limit of 5 per 1,000 of turnover for the company providing patronage.
- Offsets valued up to 25% of the donated amount.
- Support given for a direct benefit: promoting the company’s brand image and seeking short-term financial benefits.
- VAT is charged.
- Offsets equal to the amount paid in sponsorship
« This Pavilion is a place for exhibitions and emotion, but it is also a platform for events and services which provide a unique opportunity for a France that is on the move, including companies, professional bodies, regions, research institutions and cultural organisations. The France Pavilion provides you with an outstanding setting to showcase your ‘savoir-faire’ and commitment to the entire world. »

Becoming a sponsor
Companies and operators will be able to promote their various skills and knowledge throughout the 6 months when the France Pavilion at Osaka 2025 is in operation. This could be via the Pavilion’s permanent exhibition, temporary exhibitions, the two-week themes or its events. The powerful narrative of the guiding principle and the coherent design of the architecture and scenography ensure that the project’s financial benefits are presented in a way that appeals to the general public.
A bespoke partnership
The France Pavilion team draws up with each of its sponsors the form and content of their participation in Expo 2025. Its sponsors participate, according to their expertise, in the ecosystem of the France Pavilion, before and during Expo 2025. They have different profiles - companies, institutional players, regional authorities, academics, public service institutions, etc., and they are all able to benefit from individual rewards in line with the level of their contributions. These benefits may be institutional and/or communication-related (visibility on various communication media), and/or event-related (access to preferential areas and pavilion events, invitations, etc.).
Event areas
Access to a functional, stylish space is available exclusively to professional sponsors and stakeholders looking to hold their own corporate events, and it can be booked using a dedicated calendar. A lounge solely for our official sponsors is available for informal meetings and discussions throughout the 6-month event. All of these spaces can be combined.
