Heads of businesses and project leaders, we support you in a range of areas:

  • Financial engineering: We identify, request and secure immediately available financial support (public and private), and we put forward additional financing solutions based on your needs.
  • Help to detect public procurement contracts: We regularly post consultations, calls for projects (AAP), calls for expressions of interest (AMI) and calls for project management (AMO) in our News section.  
  • An interface with public authorities: We support you and help you as best we can in your interactions with local, regional and national institutions.  
  • Putting you in contact with local stakeholders: We help you to interact with the local ecosystem, one with which we have close links, to develop your business networks and maximise your growth.

Florine Ringot

Florine Ringot-Moyon

Florine, notre dernière recrue, a un parcours orienté technique : elle est titulaire d’un diplôme d’ingénieur en mécanique énergétique et a travaillé cinq ans en Allemagne: d’abord dans le secteur de l’aéronautique sur le dimensionnement technique de propulseurs d’avion, puis dans le domaine de l’hydrogène en tant que cheffe de projet de R&D pour le développement de piles à combustible.

A son retour en France, Florine a dans un premier temps travaillé à l’ADEME (agence de la transition écologique), sur la thématique de la décarbonation de l’industrie et a pu accompagner les industriels des Hauts-de-France dans leurs projets de transition énergétique. Elle a ensuite rejoint l’équipe de Dunkerque Promotion début 2022 en tant que chargée de mission. Elle aura à cœur de vous aider dans le déploiement de vos nouveaux projets, et aussi de vous accompagner sur les thématiques des énergies nouvelles ou de l’économie circulaire.

Signes particuliers : Florine est intéressée par les technologies qui viendront apporter des solutions pour notre futur, mais en tant que grande amatrice de gastronomie française (ce qui lui a manqué en Allemagne !), vous pourrez aussi la retrouver derrière les fourneaux, se lançant des défis culinaires.

Emilie Rigaud

Emilie Rigaud

Emilie joined our team after twelve years spent in China. She successively held the positions of responsible for setting up take-out points of sale in Shanghai, then director of a charity program within a professional integration organization. She then joined the Decathlon group in China, combining her passions for sport, well-being for all and ecological transition as a communication and event manager. Emilie thus reinforces the language capacities of the agency with the current practice of Mandarin. Whether you are a small business or a subsidiary of a large group, there is no doubt that the experience acquired during his international career will enable him to provide you with valuable advice and to carry out your project.
Distinguishing features: Passionate about travel and Asia, Emilie has discovered a special interest in traditional medicines. Today, she takes advantage of her return to France to rediscover her country of origin, hiking as soon as she can on the nature trails of the Opal Coast and Hautes de France. If she’s not out for a walk, you’ll probably find her in a gym or trying out a nautical activity by the sea.

CYRILLE GAILLARD

CYRILLE GAILLARD

When Cyrille came to Dunkirk for the first time, he little thought that he would settle here permanently ten years later. As he has had an extremely varied and versatile career, our team very soon nicknamed him “the Swiss army knife”! Having first joined the agency to develop and promote Dunkirk’s attractiveness to German companies, Cyrille is just as comfortable with entrepreneurs who speak English or Spanish. Passionate about the world of business, new technologies and sustainable development, he will give you invaluable advice about your project, whether it’s in the energy sector, green chemicals or any other line of business. And if you have a workshop or offices available that might be of interest to a company director, he will be happy to come and visit with a view to adding them to our property database.

Distinguishing features: Very busy but always available! He enjoys jogging along the Malo-les Bains seafront, but if the weather’s bad – which is extremely rare in Dunkirk – you’ll find him at the cinema.
