Economical environment

Regional assets

Local organisations providing dynamic impetus include the Ecole des Mines in Alès and the Myriapolis development agency.
Following one and a half century of a single industry - coal mining - the area is now being redeveloped with a focus on eco-industry, green tourism and new technologies, in particular biotechnologies and motor sports (the «mechanics hub» offers a car and motorbike circuit and makes its facilities available to scores of companies in the sector).
The demographic growth forecast for the next fifteen years is taken into account in local authorities’ housing programmes, as well as in social and educational policies.

 

Pays Grand'Combien

Development of the Humphry Davy Regional Business Park is being overseen by the Languedoc-Roussillon Region within
a specific joint agency set up with the Pays Grand’Combien District Authority.
