La French Tech
Support Organization · Paris, France
La French Tech is the French government's flagship brand and support initiative for the national startup ecosystem, launched in 2013 by the Ministry of the Economy. It operates as a unified banner under which French startups present themselves internationally, and coordinates a network of over 50 local French Tech communities (called 'Capitales') across France and in major cities worldwide. La French Tech administers the French Tech Visa program for international founders, the French Tech Tremplin program supporting underrepresented entrepreneurs, and the high-profile Next40/FT120 scale-up labels. The initiative has been instrumental in transforming France's global image from a bureaucratic economy to one of Europe's most dynamic startup nations, and its branding is ubiquitous at international tech events from CES to VivaTech.
