IF Export is a program of the Institut français designed to provide international support for French or France-based creators and cultural partners. Its primary aim is to help these individuals and organizations distribute their work, collaborate, or participate in major international cultural events. The program covers a broad array of artistic disciplines, including architecture, visual arts, photography, digital creation, crafts, design, performing arts, and music.
Support is available for projects that are face-to-face, hybrid (combining in-person and digital elements), or fully digital—especially those that integrate digital technology into the creation or production process. Projects must be developed in consultation with the French cultural network, ensuring alignment with local contexts and maximizing international outreach.
