We had the honor and the pleasure to welcome Olivia Gregoire, the current French Minister for Small and Medium Enterprises, Trade, Crafts, and Tourism. A dozen representatives of the French community, including Consulate General Damien Laban, Head of Business France North America Frédéric ROSSI, and President of the Foreign French Trade Advisors for North America Paul BENSABAT, met around the Minister at Café Joyeux Lexington for a working session around the relationships between France and the US, and how the French Government can keep supporting French companies expanding in the US. It was a joyful, warm, and productive session. An entrepreneur at heart and in her past life, an active member of the Government, and a great supporter of Café Joyeux since its early days, Olivia Gregoire inspired us all with her deep understanding of the issues faced by companies setting up and expanding in the US, and her determination to bring concrete solutions. Everyone enjoyed a French-inspired breakfast made and served by Café Joyeux staff led by General Manager Shray Campbell, including some of our crew members with special abilities Nick, Ismail, and Dianah. Merci Madame la Ministre, we hope to see you soon at Café Joyeux, either in New York or in our 23 other European cafes in France, Portugal, and Belgium. Many thanks to Benjamin Auzimour, Anthony Battaglia, Sandrine Carpentier, Pierre Berardo, Hervé Linder, Raphael Camp, and our US CEO Sylvie Giret for their active participation in this discussion.
