🇫🇷🇺🇸 A look back at our Consul General’s first visit to North Carolina!

Consul General Matthieu Clouvel Gervaiseau was honored to welcome Anne Le Hénanff, France’s Minister Delegate for Artificial Intelligence and Digital Affairs, to Chapel Hill for the G20 Innovation Ministerial.

The visit was also an opportunity to discover some of the strong 🇫🇷 connections across the Triangle in North Carolina 🇺🇸:

⚡️ Schneider Electric RaleighHub
🔬 bioMérieux in Durham
🤝 FACC Carolinas and La French Tech Raleigh
🎓 The French Center of Excellence at Duke University

From AI and innovation to science, business and education, the week offered a glimpse of the many ways France and North Carolina are connected — and the many opportunities ahead 🇫🇷🤝🇺🇸

The Consul General left North Carolina with plenty of ideas and is already looking forward to coming back soon!

Last night, Consul General Anne-Laure Desjonquères gathered with colleagues, friends, and partners to mark the end of her four-year mandate in Atlanta. As she prepares to begin a new chapter in the Netherlands, she shared a few words of gratitude and farewell.

🇫🇷🇺🇸 ´After four memorable years, my mandate as Consul General of France in Atlanta comes to an end.

Serving France across the Southeast of the United States has been an immense honor and privilege. I am deeply proud of all that we have accomplished together with my team and our consulate’s many partners.

I wish my successor, Matthieu Clouvel Gervaiseau, every success in his new role. I know that he and his wife, Stephanie, will receive the warmest Southern welcome in Atlanta and throughout the Southeast.

As I begin a new chapter at the Embassy of France in the Netherlands, I leave Atlanta with a heart full of gratitude and countless wonderful memories - including the generosity, warmth, and hospitality that made this region feel like home.

Au revoir, Southeast!’ 🇫🇷🇺🇸
-Consul General Anne-Laure Desjonquères

Goodbye… and thank you, Myriam! 🇫🇷

Today, we bid farewell to our colleague and Vice Consul, Myriam Costis, as she begins a new chapter at the Embassy of France in Monaco.

We are deeply grateful for Myriam’s outstanding work and dedication during her time in Atlanta — and for the lasting impact she leaves on our consular services and our community.

Thanks to her leadership, appointments are now available within 7 days, and passports are delivered in less than two weeks. Myriam also helped oversee major developments, including the launch of the hotline France Consulaire, and organized three elections during her time in Atlanta.

Beyond these achievements, Myriam will be remembered for her warm presence within our team. We will miss her dearly!

Dear Myriam, thank you for everything! All of us at the Consulate General of France in Atlanta wish you every success and happiness in this exciting new chapter in Monaco. 🇫🇷✨
