Excitement is mounting as France prepares to host the Summer 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games. With over 10,500 athletes representing 206 National Olympic Committees, and an influx of hundreds of thousands of spectators from around the globe, the focus naturally turns to international travel and cross-border mobility considerations.
From an immigration standpoint, hosting a global sporting extravaganza presents significant challenges.
Join Fragomen on October 24, 2023, for an exclusive live event dedicated to discussing the mobility and immigration implications associated with organizing large-scale sporting events. We will also provide updates on the advantages of early planning strategies and forthcoming policy changes in France.
Our panel of experts from France, Qatar and the United States, will share invaluable insights garnered from previous World Cup and Olympic events, along with considerations for future large-scale sporting events. Additionally, Jean-Christophe Dumont, Head of the Migration Division for OECD will provide a comprehensive overview of mobility trends observed in host countries.
