Can the holder change employer, work independently, establish a business or conduct other professional activity? What is the family position?

The card authorises the holder to stay in France and to work there under certain conditions. The employer does not have to request a work authorisation and is exempt from paying the tax for employing a foreign national. The official source does not state whether the holder can change employer, work independently, establish a business or conduct other professional activity. Family members may benefit from the simplified accompanying family procedure and obtain a 'talent-famille' residence permit.
