For the world's most
compelling voices.
We invest in, build, and run the digital businesses behind them.
From Instagram to the New York Times… and The Élysée.
Alex Durand and Tom Carles started with a phone and zero followers. Since then: an audience with President Macron, French with Prime Minister Trudeau in Paris, and three invitations to the White House Correspondents' Dinner in three years. They were official social media ambassadors for the World Cup and the French national team, and NBCUniversal brought them on in the same role for the Olympics in Paris and Milan. Penguin Random House is publishing their debut, Pardon Our French.
We are the business arm behind Alex and Tom. We build, operate, and grow every ATFrenchies venture, from the biggest French club in the world to a private evening at the U.S. Embassy in Paris.
