G2C Business Center rents meeting rooms for meetings, training sessions, interviews and small conferences, from a reception office for 5 to two rooms that seat 40 in theatre style. The center occupies the 3rd and 4th floors of a building at 63 rue André Bollier, in the Gerland district of Lyon's 7th arrondissement, with the reception on the 4th floor.
Seminars and company events
The center is a working business address rather than an event hall, and suits a board meeting, a training day, a recruitment session or a small conference. Every meeting room is equipped with a flipchart, a whiteboard and a video projector, and a thermos of coffee is included with each booking. The premises are air-conditioned in summer and get good natural light, according to the center.
Additional services can be ordered on quote by email, and must be booked before the day of the event: breakfast or a snack set out before participants arrive, meal trays, a cocktail, a buffet and taxi bookings. For a seminar, the center can also take on administrative tasks linked to an event, such as sending invitations, chasing replies by email or phone and managing registrations.
The same company provides business domiciliation, a telephone answering service, office rental by the month or part-time, administrative assistance and training courses. Since February 2023 G2C has belonged to the same group as L'Espace 193, which gives access to a combined offer of 20 offices and 10 meeting rooms across the two sites.
