Philippe Etienne, French Ambassador to US on French Tech at CES 2022, 2024 Paris Olympics and more



Rick talks with the Ambassador of France to the US, Philippe Etienne this week on ‘Tech of Sports.’

Étienne served as chief diplomatic adviser to the President of France, Emmanuel Macron, from 2017 to 2019. He was nominated as ambassador of France in the United States effective September 2019.

He was in Las Vegas last week leading the French Tech delegation, which was huge. Lots of innovation and potential from France and putting #greentech front and center.

France is the leading European country in terms of number of green start-ups as well as legal and tax reforms that support ecological goals and sustainable business models. This exclusive breakfast session will include key policy makers along with successful companies implementing innovative sustainability businesses. 

A great talk with the Ambassador and thanks for a few moments of his time.
