Patrons

ETRIA is a global technology company, which was created as a joint venture between Ricoh, Toshiba Tec and Oki Electric Industry.
ETRIA combines advanced expertise in the development and in the manufacturing of optical and imaging equipment such as photocopiers and printers, thus offering innovative, high-quality products to a wide range of sectors worldwide. It has been established in Normandy since 1986 as a historic French industrial site near Dieppe. The company plays an active role in local innovation, industrial excellence, and environmental responsibility. By sponsoring the Normandy Impressionist Festival, ETRIA is pleased to support this celebration of artistic excellence, which brings together internationally renowned artists who inspire the public in Normandy but also in the rest of the world.

The Caisse des Dépôts and its subsidiaries constitute a public group, a long-term investor who serves the general interest and the economic development of the territories.
In keeping with its mission of serving the public interest, Caisse des Dépôts implements a patronage policy across France in three areas: classical music, dance, and architecture & landscape. Within the field of architecture and landscape, it supports projects dedicated to the environment, the promotion of cultural heritage, and for young audiences.

The CMQ CEINE, leader of the H2NC (Hydrogen and Carbon neutrality project) project, is sponsoring the GIP Normandie Impressionniste and the Dans le Sens de Barge association to boost the appeal of the low-carbon hydrogen sector. Through a "Hydrogen Roadmap," traveling Art & Science events bring together the worlds of François Dufeil, an artist who was selected by H2NC, and Fujiko Nakaya, one of the festival’s featured guests. This project echoes the artistic shifts of the early industrial era, and it connects contemporary creation to the energy transition in Normandy, with support from the Banque des Territoires as part of the France 2030 initiative.

AXA, a socially responsible company, extends its commitment in Normandy around issues of solidarity, territory and culture.
By supporting the 6th edition of the festival, AXA is reaffirming its commitment to culture and the arts whilst remaining true to its values of protecting and passing on the heritage of this region that rich in history and dynamism. This is more than patronage; it's a natural extension of their role as an insurer: they strive for human progress by protecting what matters and promoting culture throughout France.

The Sanef Group manages close to 2,000 km of motorways. It supports the cultural and touristic appeal of the regions it is present in through an active sponsorship policy that aims for the promotion of cultural events and the attraction of new audiences. The recent implementation of free-flow tolling on the Normandy motorways (A13 and A14) facilitates cultural and tourist getaways thanks to smoother traffic flow. This is why it was a natural choice for the group to support the Normandy Impressionist Festival 2026, which was organized to commemorate the centenary of Claude Monet's death.
