SiliconFrench: About us

About SiliconFrench
The end of the startup bubble has pushed French professionals to reconsider their situation as expatriates. They have realized how fragile their position was in the Silicon Valley due to tough visa requirements, lack of foreign Graduate degree recognition and the lack of support within the French community.
	The existence of a strong French community network in the USA is an important contribution to the Silicon Valley economy and the image of France abroad.
	SiliconFrench's goal is to merge the best features of the two cultures. It aims at educating people into a new way of succeeding with the help of each other in the most positive way.
	For instance, the strong communication skills (presentation, speed reading, etc.) and leadership (organization, teamwork, etc.) of the American society and the strong French scientific education are complementary and should be combined for bettering the career of the French professional in California.
