Maybe the author doesn't have the power to do said updates :). Does a low flexibility index indicate that companies should not be opened in France, or even considered? Your point is totally valid, however I don't see how it invalidates what OP worked on

Reality always comes back to snag you out of delusion. And reality is that France is not attractive. Without core modifications this kind of initiative will be close to useless.

(I'm one of many french engineers who left France to have a decent career)

[jlengrand]

Same here. I left because France is not attractive indeed. And I also agree core changes are needed to make France attractive for entrepreneurs.

At the same time, the points that OP makes are still valid :). For someone that wants to open a company, social aids and healthcare access can matter. Other countries are more open than France is, but it doesn't make France a black hole where nobody can make a good career. The Paris tech scene is most alive.

You're right that this initiative is one step in the right direction. I don't want my comments perceived as too negative. I'm one of the people singing "Let's make France great again!"

[jlengrand]

Amen to that !
