Global Atlanta
French tech firms will have an easier time finding Atlanta with the city s designation as a La French Tech community.
Atlanta has been named a “French Tech” hub, a designation boosters say will put the city on the map for startups looking to expand from France to
North America.
France’s Ministry of Economy, Finance and Recovery announced the seal of approval in a batch with seven other locales that applied, including
Chicago in the U.S., the nation of
Australia and the
Istanbul.
La French Tech hubs exist in about 100 cities about half of them (including 13 tech “capitals” and 45 communities) are in France, with the rest spread around the world. They provide a rallying point for French and “Francophile” companies and serve as a locus for French government’s outbound support programs, which include seed funding, trade missions and more.
