🇫🇷 Proud to Pursue La French Tech San Francisco

I'm actively working toward joining La French Tech San Francisco, and I'm especially excited about the La French Tech NOVA program, which supports high-potential entrepreneurs from under-represented and minority backgrounds — entrepreneurs like myself — with mentoring, investor connections, and access to the broader French Tech network. Fingers crossed!
