Go Global: Business French for Founders - Introductions & Professional Basics
Is your startup ready to operate in French-speaking markets?
Go Global: Business French is a monthly workshop series designed specifically for founders (and founders to be) who want practical, real-world French for business—not a traditional language class. French is more than just a Canadian language; it’s a gateway to the Quebec market and fast-growing tech ecosystems across Europe and French-speaking Africa.
The Go Global series equips entrepreneurs with the essential Business French needed to pitch, network, and communicate confidently in professional settings. No boring grammar lessons—just the phrases, structures, and confidence you need to operate in French-speaking business environments.
Each session focuses on a core business scenario founders actually face, from investor pitches and networking conversations to growth discussions and market expansion.
Session 1 kicks off the series by focusing on:
Professional greetings in business settings
Introducing yourself and your role as a founder
Building confidence speaking French in professional environments
Workshops take place on a monthly basis and are open to founders at all stages. No prior French experience is required.
