An evening with Franck GERVAIS

The BMMA and CBC Banque & Assurance present:

Franck GERVAIS, General Manager, Thalys International.

Thalys is the red high speed train connecting Paris to Brussels in 1 h 22, but also to Cologne and to Amsterdam in just 3h14 and 3h16. Since 2011, Thalys also stops in the three German cities of Düsseldorf, Duisburg and Essen, as well as at Brussels Airport. From April 2014 on, Thalys will connect Lille with Amsterdam.

Since 1996, Thalys is the only real multicultural actor who has successfully succeeded  the challenge of the international high speed rail in four countries. With its 100 million passengers, its turnover of 490 million € and the 2000 people working for this company, we can say that “Thalys” is a commercial as well as a technical success.

The conference will be held in French.

The number of participants is strictly limited to 40 persons.
