The CIC, Founding partner

Committed to promoting culture and classical music to all audiences, CIC continues its work to develop the region through numerous national and regional partnerships. For more than 20 years, CIC has been working alongside renowned theaters, museums, festivals, orchestras, and cultural and musical events.

As a patron of the National Maritime Museum since 2023 and the Army Museum since 2003, CIC supports the educational, cultural, and heritage initiatives of these two major institutions. At the heart of these partnerships is a shared desire to promote the transmission of knowledge and raise public awareness of historical and contemporary issues.

Over the past two decades, CIC's support for the Army Museum has taken the form of contributions towards the acquisition of works of art and artifacts, the creation and promotion of temporary exhibitions, and the completion of major renovation projects.

As an active and committed partner in the field of classical music, CIC supports the Saison Musicale des Invalides organized by the Army Museum. Each year, the museum offers a series of concerts featuring seasoned artists and promising new talent.

CIC is also a founding partner of the Festival de Pâques d'Aix-en-Provence, a showcase for artistic excellence and the initiator of a free solidarity program promoting wider access to classical music throughout the South Region.

Committed to promoting young talent, CIC supports the Victoires de la Musique Classique awards ceremony and welcomes each year's Revelation artists in the Lyric Artist and Instrumental Soloist categories to the Saison Musicale des Invalides for a unique concert specially designed around these artists.

Since 2018, CIC has been supporting the Théâtre Mogador, an extraordinary Parisian cultural and performance venue listed as a historic monument in France. Through these major initiatives and the many and varied activities carried out by its regional banks, CIC is one of France's leading partners in the world of culture.
