Who we are

Launched in 2014 by the French government, "La French Tech" is a global initiative and a collective brand with the ambition to give visibility to French tech entrepreneurs and French know-how around the world. This movement is locally driven by its members in each major cities, in coordination with other French Tech communities to create a global network of people that can support each other. In 2019, La French Tech Bangkok was labelled as an official "French Tech Community" by the French government.

La French Tech Bangkok community is open to everyone, whether you are French, Thai or any other nationality, French-speaking or not. It is entirely free and welcomes all good initiatives.
