"French Weeks Miami 2016" - October 27 to November 8
Published on November 1, 2016
Every year, French Weeks Miami showcases more than 20 events, from cultural programs to social and economic networking events, strengthening ties between many local and international partners such as universities, museums and art galleries, festivals, economic organizations, cities, associations and schools.
The «French Weeks» festival is an opportunity to celebrate the expertise, as well as the power of innovation of the French companies. The French Tech takes center stage this year because France is at an inflexion point: its digital transformation is accelerating and a new dynamic ecosystem is emerging. In Miami, it leads to the creation of many specialized French Tech start-ups.
French Weeks Miami, launched by the French-American Chamber of Commerce 9 years ago in Miami, is organized in partnership with the Consulate General of France in Miami and held under the patronage of the Ambassador of France in the United States.
