The signature of the Convention in 1987 between The Walt Disney Company, French state, the Ile-de-France Region, the Seine-et-Marne Department, EPAMARNE-EPAFRANCE and RATP marks the birth of the new area located at the east of Paris, area that will focus on housing, jobs and leisure.
Private and public figures are committed for a concentrated and proficient development of the area until 2030 on a land perimeter of 2,230 hectares concerned by the Convention, which half is already developed.
Val d’Europe is an economic success and a beautiful human adventure. Val d’Europe is already 30 years old and yet just started growing. It is a real economic success since 2,400 companies already are installed, mainly in the service and retail industries; tourism is the most important one for outsiders due to the proximity of Disneyland Paris, first European touristic destination.
Val d’Europe is an unprecedented partnership success for those who built it and those who keep working on the project until 2030.
