Here are some meeting announcements and some information about Florida associations that we noticed:
FLORIDA
Associations serving the French can apply for project grants through the French consulate through the STAFE system. To do this, you must submit an application by October 15: www.miami.consulfrance.org/dispositif-stafe-appel-a-projet-2022
FRENCH CINEMA FESTIVAL IN MIAMI
French Film Festival: Unfortunately, several French films have postponed their official release (it doesn’t end!), Patrick Gimenez and his team have not been able to complete the program for this year, despite attempts. The festival is therefore postponed again to November 2022. Francophones (and their friends) appreciate this autumn festival, which was in the fourteenth edition in 2019!
FACC MIAMI
There will be no “French weeks” this year either, but since 2020, “Miami Live” is scheduled for November 16-18 with about forty meetings on doing business in Miami, which should take place almost exclusively. On the Internet (and if the health situation allows it, maybe live!).

“Creating a Franchise in the US: There is a Secret to Success”
This is the topic of a free webinar held on September 1 at 12:30 by the French-American Chambers of Commerce FRAMCO (Tampa Bay) and FABCO (Orlando), who achieved a nice partnership after the first webinar was co-organized by a bakery in the United States. This time it will be possible to discuss with already installed franchisees.
