Dear FACCNE Members, Partners and Friends,
It's been almost 2 months since the Omicron wave started slowing down the return of our in-person programming, but we are optimistic. By April, we hope to be able to offer you more in-person learning and networking opportunities, as well as bring French business delegations back to New England.
Looking forward, I'd like to share some of FACCNE's priorities for 2022:
1- Membership: continue to grow our network and attract more French and American corporate members from various industries, as well as key players of the New England innovation ecosystem.
2- Events: continue our successful events, relaunch our Leader Series, host more collaborative events between our Forums, host events on Sustainability, bring the FAB Awards back!
3 -Network: develop an even closer relationship with our local American partners, the other New England-based international business associations and our counterparts from the 'Team France' in Boston, create links with new partners in the US and France.
4- Infrastructure: move to a new integrated digital suite to provide improved services and networking opportunities to our Members.
5 - Talent: support our members with their hiring needs and provide new educational programs with experts.
If you'd like to share any comments or suggestions regarding this vision for the year, don't hesitate to reach out to me, our Board Members, or our Forums' Chairs with new ideas.
I look forward to seeing you soon.
