FLYAWAY

What FLYAWAY does

FLYAWAY is a French professional training and coaching firm headquartered in Asnières-sur-Seine, Île-de-France, operating as a SAS (Société par Actions Simplifiée) since 2015. The company delivers soft-skills, leadership, and communication training programs to enterprise clients and, increasingly, to educational institutions, youth, parents, and educators. Its portfolio spans core executive and team coaching, supplemented by newer modules in neurodiversity, disability awareness, and change management, indicating a deliberate broadening of the curriculum into adjacent corporate-wellbeing and DEI themes.

The business model is built on fee-for-service training delivery: revenue is generated through per-learner or per-program engagements with corporate buyers and individual CPF-funded learners, leveraging the firm's QUALIOPI certification as a gating credential for accessing French public training funds. Distribution combines direct enterprise sales with channel access via Formiris, a network for private education institutions. Technology is limited to a web presence and content catalogue; the core product is human-delivered, in-person or remote coaching rather than a software platform.

Operational scale is modest: approximately 30 employees, €5,000 share capital, and 1,263 trainees served in 2025 with a 93% satisfaction rate. The company is led by president Anne-Sophie de Chauvigny. There is no disclosed funding history, no AI/ML capabilities, and no geographic footprint beyond the Île-de-France region, positioning FLYAWAY as a boutique, founder-led training house rather than a scaled training platform.
