The need for a French-American Business Council in Arizona

Today, we count approximately 2,500 native French speakers in the Phoenix metropolitan area. Within the last 10 years, the number of companies with ties to French-speaking countries grew 900% from 6 to over 50. The numbers speak for themselves. The state of Arizona has become very attractive for businesses, and both the French and Canadian governments have launched campaigns to work more closely with this part of the United States.

Arizona, an attractive business region

Arizona has a lot to offer to French businesses:

• Investment costs, company overhead and cost of living expenses are low.
• Good central location: close to California and Mexico.
• Home of the Silicon Desert.
• High traffic tourist area.
• 350 sunny days per year.
• Magnet for company seminars, corporate retreats and business conferences with our numerous resorts facilities and golf courses.
• Other perks: Spring training baseball, proximity to the Grand Canyon, efficient highway system, healthy outdoor living.
