Mission of the French-American Chamber of Commerce
Julien Legeard serves as president of The Prestige Group, a construction consulting company based in New York City. As part of the French-American Chamber of Commerce (FACC), Julien Legeard was nominated for its Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award in 2015.
The FACC supports entrepreneurs who build the economic relationship between France and the United States while promoting the development of member companies in New York. It serves as a networking platform as well as an information exchange, allowing professionals in the tax, entrepreneurship, customs, and immigration fields to share their insights with one another through panel discussions and events such as networking opportunities, sports tournaments, and holiday receptions.
Each year, the FACC's New York chapter hosts its Gala Evening at Tribeca Rooftop in Manhattan. This serves as both a fundraising event for the organization's nonprofit arm, the French-American Chamber of Commerce Foundation, and a chance for members to connect with one another. Through these events, the FACC is able to raise funds for scholarship programs, building the next generation of French-American business leaders.
