Past Event | Welcome to Singapore 2026
The rentrée wouldn’t be the same without our Welcome to Singapore!
On 23 September, more than 300 guests gathered at Sofitel Singapore Sentosa for one of the French Chamber of Commerce in Singapore’s most anticipated events of the year. The mood was set from the start: great energy, familiar faces and plenty of new introductions.
Antoine Sirgi, FCCS Vice-President, welcomed guests, followed by H.E. Stephen Marchisio, Ambassador of France to Singapore. Valérie Conxicoeur, Head of Member Services & Communication, and Lae Douangpraseuth, Head of Business Development, then presented the Chamber’s services and the many ways FCCS helps its community connect and grow in Singapore.
A special lucky draw brought some extra excitement: a three-day, two-night stay at Club Med Bintan. Congratulations to the winner, and thank you to Club Med for the prize!
The evening then moved onto the Sofitel Sentosa terrace for a cocktail reception. Guests enjoyed canapés, charcuterie, raclette, cheeses provided by Classic Fine Foods , freshly baked baguettes provided by PAUL, and a tempting selection of desserts, accompanied by French wines from The Vintage Wine Club. Over good food and wine, conversations flowed and new connections took shape, exactly what Welcome to Singapore is all about.Guests went home with a goodie bag from our sponsors, including a sweet treat from Le Petit Croissant.
Thank you to everyone who brought such good energy to the evening. A special thank you to our sponsors DiotSiaci Asia, IFS (International French School Singapore) and Luther, and to our partners Club Med, Sofitel Singapore Sentosa and Vintage for making the 2026 edition possible.
