Fiba Cocktail de la Rentrée

The FIBA Cocktail de la Rentrée, held at the Lyon CCI on 20th September, will live long in the memory.
On a pleasant late summer evening, the FIBA members and contacts gathered for this annual event, which continues to go from strength to strength.
This year saw a record number of people attend and the atmosphere was welcoming and energetic as those assembled renewed acquaintances and made a host of new contacts.
After some very warm words of welcome from Bruno Chiaverini, International Director of Lyon CCI, the main speaker was the CEO of Rossignol Bruno Cercley. Bruno is a very widely admired and respected businessman and he explained the recent events at Rossignol and how he and his team have rebuilt the company since re-taking control of the company in November 2008. All were impressed by the business achievements and, importantly, Bruno’s sense of humour, which is distinctly British!
Following the presentation, all enjoyed the excellent buffet and the chance to network with so many others involved in international business before heading off home to book a skiing holiday!
