Paris La Défense is a local public institution that combines the competencies of development, management, animation and promotion of the territory. The Paris La Défense teams work on the development and modernisation of the district, through the implementation of ambitious real estate and urban projects. The establishment has also undertaken a major project to diversify the district by developing a first-rate commercial, residential and leisure offer. Its ambition? To transform the district into a real place to live!

In 2021, Paris La Défense adopted a Raison d'être setting the objective of becoming the first post-carbon district in the world and reducing territorial greenhouse gas emissions by two by 2030.
