This announcement marks a historic milestone and confirms France\u2019s position as the institutional driving force behind digital finance in Europe.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">President Macron will address the conference\u2019s 10,000 attendees on the strategic priorities shaping European digital sovereignty: the development of euro-denominated <span>stablecoins<\/span>, the introduction of a digital euro, and the establishment of regulatory frameworks to position Europe at the heart of the global digital economy. The conference will also welcome senior French government officials directly involved in European digital asset regulation, <span>stablecoin<\/span> policy and institutional financial infrastructure.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight:400\">\u201cEurope should also seek to strengthen the international role of the euro through the development of euro <span>stablecoins<\/span> and the introduction of a digital euro, as well as the creation of safe and liquid assets to finance defence and technology.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><b>Emmanuel Macron, op-ed published in the Financial Times<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">This address reflects the French President\u2019s broader international positioning across successive global forums, notably at Davos, where he has repeatedly called on European governments and institutions to accelerate their engagement in digital financial infrastructure.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">France has established itself as one of the most advanced G7 jurisdictions in digital assets. Building on the success of the PACTE law and the PSAN licensing regime, the government has made Paris and its surrounding area a major hub for global institutions. The \u00c9lys\u00e9e\u2019s engagement with Paris <span>Blockchain<\/span> Week, now in its seventh edition, reflects a deliberate strategy to position France as the benchmark regulatory model for the European Union under the MiCA regulation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">This edition will welcome attendees from over 100 countries on April 15\u201316 at the Carrousel du Louvre, including leaders from BNP Paribas, Cr\u00e9dit Agricole, Banque de France, HSBC, JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and hundreds of other leading institutions. The week will open with the VIP Dinner at the Ch\u00e2teau de Versailles, a private evening gathering 500 leaders from finance, tech and institutions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Paris\u2019s standing as a global financial centre finds a strategic pillar in digital assets. Building on the entry into force of MiCA, France is consolidating its leadership in the supervision and development of the finance of tomorrow. Institutional partners and exhibitors will benefit from a unique platform to engage in dialogue on these sovereignty challenges, under the scrutiny of the international financial media.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>ABOUT PARIS <span>BLOCKCHAIN<\/span> WEEK<\/b><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.parisblockchainweek.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Paris Blockchain Week<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight:400\"> is Europe\u2019s leading institutional conference dedicated to <span>blockchain<\/span> technology and digital assets.
