On 23 March, as part of his visit to Brest, during which he visited the French Naval Academy and the Maritime Prefecture, Mr Gomart, Director of the IFRI (French Institute for International Relations), visited the MICA Center. He was very interested to learn about the contributions of our center to maritime cooperation and the way in which the French Navy, through the MICA Center, maintains links with the French and international maritime industry.

The visit of the premises then allowed him to appreciate the work performed by the watch teams.

At the end of this visit, Mr. Gomart gave a lecture to the officers of the Atlantic maritime district to present the reflections of his latest work on strategic perspectives in a context of competition between superpowers – also marked by environmental degradation, digital transformation and social fragmentation.
