OVERCOMING THE OBSTACLES OF STARTING  BUSINESS IN A NEW ENVIRONMENT

Understanding processes, dealing with government agencies and local bureaucracy, finding the right premises, adapting to local business culture… these consume precious time and resources. HiConnect helps foreign corporations navigate their way through these areas, enabling the company to focus on business development.

MANAGING HUMAN RESOURCES FOR LONG-TERM SUCCESS

Investing in human resources management at an early stage is crucial to the long-term development of any business, whatever the size, particularly in France. With an extensive experience of bicultural human resources management and a detailed knowledge of French labor law, HiConnect offers customized services for compliant employee management and administration, providing essential support to corporate management, local management and employees. 

expatriating EMPLOYEES SMOOTHLY, EFFICIENTLY AND HUMANELY

Foreign corporations often send expats to participate in the development of their foreign subsidiaries. Managing expatriation is not as simple as just finding a place for the employee and his/her family to live. 

From immigration formalities, to finding the ideal home and schools, to advising on the tax and labor legislation which will apply to an employee expatriated to France,  HiConnect provides a fully comprehensive service, making the transition to France a smooth and rewarding experience.
