How does Geolink support business & professional services investors?
Geolink shortlists the locations and sites that fit your business & professional services project, maps the incentives you qualify for, and coordinates local partners for registration and setup, from first search to operations.
Can a foreign company own industrial real estate in France, Spain, Andorra, Belgium or Switzerland?
Yes. None of them restricts foreign ownership of commercial or industrial property: you can buy, build or lease directly, with no local partner required. Geolink covers the real-estate side and coordinates the legal and banking partners for the rest.
What financial incentives are available to foreign investors in France?
France offers a broad package: the research tax credit (CIR) covering up to 30% of R&D spend, regional investment grants of up to 25% in eligible zones (AFR), a reduced corporate tax rate, and site-specific schemes such as “Territoires d’Industrie”. Geolink maps every scheme your project qualifies for.
How long does it take to set up a company in France?
A French company can be incorporated within a few days. Reaching full operation (banking, tax registration, premises and first hires) typically takes a few weeks to a few months depending on your activity. Geolink coordinates the whole timeline for you.
Can Geolink handle company registration, banking, tax and recruitment?
Yes. Beyond site selection, our vetted network of legal, accounting, banking and recruitment partners handles registration and operational setup, so you deal with a single point of contact.
Do I need to speak French to invest in France?
No. Geolink and its partners work in English, and a growing share of the French administration provides English-language support to foreign investors. We bridge any language or administrative gap.
What does Geolink’s support cost?
Our initial location and feasibility work is scoped to your project: tell us what you need in a few minutes and we’ll come back with a clear proposal. Many public-sector partners in the network provide their guidance free of charge.
