Marianne Argentina

What Marianne Argentina does

Marianne Argentina (Asociación de Mujeres Franco-Argentinas / Association de Femmes Franco-Argentines) is a non-profit civil association founded in 2010 and headquartered in CABA, Buenos Aires, Argentina. It operates as a bicultural professional and social community for women of French and Argentine heritage, with a stated mission to promote Franco-Argentine ties, women's leadership, and gender equality. The association operates with 26 employees and an elected Comisión Directiva rotating on roughly two-to-three-year cycles; the current 2025-2027 authorities are Eve Grynberg (President) and Alicia Moszkowski (Vice President).

Its portfolio consists of four primary offerings: (i) the Bonjour Marianne newsletter, distributed regularly to members and the broader community; (ii) the Marianne Books (Libro Marianne 1 and 2), compiled publications of member-authored articles on Franco-Argentine relations, women's leadership, photography, education, and culture; (iii) Marianne events and conferences, including the annual Cocktail Marianne, debate cycles such as the Día de la Mujer program, and topic-driven conferences like 'Francia y Argentina: historias entrelazadas'; and (iv) the Premio Marianne annual award program recognizing member contributions across professional and cultural fields. Distribution is digital-first (website marianne.com.ar, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter/X, YouTube, LinkedIn, and the #MARIANNEENCASA content series) combined with in-person gatherings.

Marianne's economic model is that of a non-profit association: revenue is not publicly disclosed and is understood to derive from membership contributions, event participation, and partnership support. The association is not a technology company and does not sell a product or service in the commercial sense; its competitive moat rests on institutional partnerships with the French Embassy in Argentina (flagship), Alliance Française, Institut Français d'Argentine, and CCI France Argentine, which collectively position Marianne as the principal organized bridge between the French and Argentine women's professional communities.
