01
Managing France from headquarters
Time zones, language and local vendors make remote oversight slow. Tickets get lost in translation, and small on-site issues wait for someone to fly in.
Solution · For international companies
Your French operations, run by a local partner.
Opening or running a subsidiary, branch or store network in France? Dalena is a single English-speaking IT partner based in Paris — managed IT, cybersecurity, telephony and business software under one contract, coordinated with your group IT.
What holds you back
The recurring blockers.
02
Group standards vs local rules
Your group has its own security baseline and tooling; France adds GDPR, local telecom operators and French administrative practice. Someone has to reconcile both — in writing.
03
Opening an office with no one on the ground
Internet access, phone numbers, Wi-Fi, workstations, access control: setting up premises remotely means orchestrating several French providers you have never worked with.
Our approach
