Viviane Salin

French founder of La Petite Ecole group, Viviane Salin graduated from France’s top business school (HEC). After working in events and production companies in Paris, she moved to Singapore with her husband in 2006, where she taught and played the violin.

What then sparked the idea of launching La Petite Ecole, a French bilingual education group for young children, was to see her two children grow up with a Third culture. Born in Singapore, they needed to maintain French as a native language, learn English and build strong cultural and social foundations for the future. Together with her husband, Viviane embarked on the journey of spreading the best of French education for everyone.

After winning the French Entrepreneur Awards from the French Chamber of Commerce in 2016, they opened La Petite Ecole in Bangkok and in Ho Chi Minh in September 2017.
