Georgia Tech and the Consulate General of France in Atlanta are joining forces on a project designed to foster new partnerships between France and the Southeast and new economic innovation.
A formal presentation is scheduled for Feb. 3 on Georgia Tech’s campus to potential sponsors interested in supporting the planned series of events slated for later this year. The joint project will be called “France-Atlanta: Together Towards Innovation,” and will include a focus on scientific research advances, clean energy, transportation, logistics and access to highly qualified workforces. Cultural performances and exhibitions also are planned.
Plans also call for the creation of a new research institute which would operate in conjunction with the Georgia Tech-Lorraine campus in Metz, France.
