With its 6.6 million square metres of office space, the Lyon region provides a highly competitive and innovative business environment, with boundless vitality to benefit all companies. Every year it welcomes between 10,000 and 30,000 companies looking to benefit from a property plan to suit their project, in premises that meet their energy and environmental requirements and their employees' expectations regarding comfort and performance.

To meet each and every one of your needs - regardless of the activity, size, and logistical or accessibility constraints of your company - Lyon Métropole offers a diverse mix throughout its entire region. This mix is in tune with user expectations and adapted to latest challenges surrounding the world of work: changing job roles, digital and environmental transitions, employee well-being, quality of life for local residents, better mobility solutions, etc.
Lyon Métropole's property mix includes rental and sales:

Flexible solutions for your property projects
The Lyon region has learned to anticipate needs and engage property sector players by developing flexible solutions to provide better support for businesses as they set up, grow and transform (transition) their activities.
Lyon Métropole and its partners provide support services to help businesses find land and property, source financing (flexible lease agreements), support their employees and recruit talent by meeting all their emerging organisational needs:
remote working, working from hom, multi-site, hybrid and collaborative property solutions for artisans, growth compagnies, and also organisations in the social and solidarity sector.
Lyon: a strategic destination for all business sectors
By choosing the Lyon region to develop your business, you join an efficient, committed and well-meaning ecosystem. Located at the heart of a mobility network and transport hub, it offers Europe-wide connections across geographic zones and communities.
Located at the heart of the city centre's "urbain districts" or in new, booming economic hubs you will be gaining a whole lot more than suitable premises.
Lyon's ecosystem provides a network of strong support and effective mutualisation with get-togethers, opportunities and inspiration.
Connected destinations
From Grand Parilly to Part-Dieu, via the Presqu’Île, Grand Clément, the Carré de Soie and Saulaie, all the main service sector and industry destinations are connected to Lyon's metro and tram lines and to its cycle paths, soon to be extended with 250 km of fast, protected cycle lanes.
A wide network of professionals
But setting up in the Lyon region also brings the benefits of six centres of excellence and a wide network of professionals in sectors as diverse as industry, life sciences, biotech and health, banking and insurance, the digital industry, textiles, the social and solidarity economy, mobility, logistics and transport, chemicals, clean technologies, etc.
