Les Traversées Baroques
Judith Pacquier et Etienne Meyer, Co-directors

We have lived in Dijon for 22 years and founded our musical ensemble, Les Traversées Baroques, here in 2008. We draw our artistic inspiration from the heart of this city steeped in history, culture and innovation. It is here that our musicians rehearse, create and share. It is from here that we spread our wings, in Bourgogne-Franche-Comté, France and internationally, bringing our repertoires to life with boldness and rigour. Being an artist living in Dijon means carrying on the legacy of a city that is focused on the arts, committed to passing on its heritage and resolutely open to the world. We are proud to be part of Dijon’s cultural fabric, alongside all those who bring this city to life and follow us on our musical adventures.
With Les Traversées Baroques, when we tour, Dijon travels with us in our suitcases!

Jean-Philippe Porcherot
CEO, Atols Conseils et Développements

While many digital companies are drawn to Paris, we chose to open 2 agencies in Dijon. Many of our staff live here and love the quality of life.
Our clients and partners from around France are always warmly welcomed when they visit. They enjoy staying in our beautiful city and we make sure they discover its rich cultural and gastronomic heritage.

Sandrine Vannet
Chief Executive Officer, SEB

Dijon is the heart of Burgundy: a city that combines modernity and heritage.
As the historic birthplace of Groupe SEB, we are proud of our roots in a region renowned for its richness and authenticity.
Our employees find a precious balance here: the human scale of an accessible city, the vitality of a metropolis, easy connections and immediate proximity to nature.
Dijon is also a way of life: traditional and rich gastronomy, exceptional vineyards known throughout the world and remarkable architectural heritage.
Whenever we welcome visitors, we love to show them a beautiful, welcoming city that is resolutely focused on the future.

Sarah Chefirat
Head of Studies at ESTP Dijon Campus

I was born in Dijon and spent part of my childhood in the heart of the city, living on Place Grangier and frequently visiting Darcy Park and its famous Pompon bear almost daily. Later, as a student, the back-to-school concerts became a cherished tradition during the academic year. And now, I am thrilled to showcase Dijon and its many assets to the students I support in my role at ESTP, who come from all over France and internationally.

Nicolas Vernet
Cofounder, Tease Production

Dijon has a rich historical and cultural heritage, and a gastronomic heritage that’s unparalleled. It’s more than just a destination: It’s a thriving ecosystem for entrepreneurs, very open and accessible. The quality of life fosters both personal and professional fulfilment. Setting up Tease Production here allowed me to benefit from an innovative and dynamic network that bridges tradition and innovation, offering exciting opportunities for partnerships and projects.

Xavière Castano

I moved to Dijon 26 years ago at the start of my professional journey, and I’ve never left. Dijon is a magical mix of heritage, tradition, passionate and inspiring individuals, as well as the vibrant contrasts of fog and light. Through my company, Crossject, and various regional and national roles, I proudly express my love for the city I now call home.

Dijon is a city on the go. It’s constantly evolving. That’s why I chose to develop my business here, in city that’s on the move and developing in new ways, with a high quality of life and an environment that fosters innovation and creativity. I’m proud to contribute to this vibrant energy through my audiovisual projects and to draw from its network and local opportunities. Staying in Dijon is also a way of showcasing the city that shaped me and continues to surprise me.
