Join us for a special event focused on the French business community in Tampa Bay - NOW AT THE USF RESEARCH PARK! USF students are encouraged to attend and to make important connections within USF Network France!
Summary:
This event will leverage USF’s unique position as a global academic institution to explore the intersections of international education, business, and diplomacy within the Tampa Bay region - in this case with a special focus on ties to France and the French community. USF World will collaborate with the French-American Business Council of Western Florida (FRAMCO) to host this annual event, including a VIP reception on the evening of the new Beaujolais, and a half-day program on the USF Tampa campus the following day. The event will feature respected members of the French community, highlight French faculty and student success, and provide a networking platform for French-owned businesses and organizations through an interactive tabling exposition. The purpose of the event is to:
- Connect USF alumni, students, faculty and partners who have personal and/or professional ties to France, and to build awareness of the extensive French cultural and business community in the Tampa Bay region
- Nurture relations in the French business community that will foster global professional development opportunities for USF students
- Explore the needs and interests of the French business community
- Highlight opportunities for the university to support and drive global economic growth in this community
The 2024 inaugural event will have a special focus on medical technology, as it is a matter of great interest to the current Consul General of France in Florida.
