French American Chamber

Last Friday night attended the French American Chamber Gala at the InterContinental in Buckhead. It was a great evening with lots of champagne flowing. Everyone was dressed to the nine's . One of my clients , Los Altos de Eros, an exclusive spa resort located in Costa Rica, contributed one week at their resort for the auction. The contribution raised $1500 for the function. There was dancing and great food at the event. Met lots of interesting people. But I forgot my camera.

The following quote is from the AJC

Atlanta's budding ties with the French government are blossoming into a full-blown relationship.

Jean-David Levitte, French ambassador to the United States, announced that the Atlanta French consul general's office will add six to eight new economic trade specialists to its two-person Trade Commission staff by September.

The trade specialists will help French companies wishing to invest or establish a presence in the United States, said Levitte, who announced the news during a gala celebrating the 20th anniversary of the French-American Chamber of Commerce's Atlanta chapter.
