Similarly, Iran National Airlines played a key role in the center’s operations. The airline provided information about travel opportunities and promoted its growing network of international routes. Travelers interested in visiting Iran could obtain details regarding flights, accommodations, and tourist attractions. Direct air connections between Paris and Tehran facilitated increasing numbers of visitors and strengthened the relationship between the two capitals.
The organizational structure of the House of Iran reflected the partnership between these two major Iranian institutions. The center was established as a joint-stock company with equal participation from the National Iranian Oil Company and Iran National Airlines. This arrangement demonstrated the cooperative effort involved in promoting Iran’s cultural and economic presence abroad.
Responsibility for executive management was entrusted to Mehdi Bushehri, an experienced administrator whose leadership contributed significantly to the center’s development. The board of directors consisted of representatives from both participating organizations, ensuring balanced oversight and coordinated planning.
