France is poised to win record foreign investment pledges when President Emmanuel Macron receives global business leaders, including Tesla's Elon Musk, on Monday at the annual Choose France summit.
For the president, whose popularity has suffered from a widely unpopular proposal to raise the French, the summit is a chance to justify his pro-business reform drive and shift attention to his promotion of lower carbon industry, such as electric vehicles.
Executives attending the event in Versailles close to Paris have so far made commitments to invest a combined 13 billion euros , the most since Macron first held the summit in 2018., will meet Macron at his official residence the Elysee Palace before attending lunch with Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire, the finance ministry told Reuters.
