You will find figures, information, portraits of entrepreneurs and testimonials from our partners on the three central themes that drive us every day:

• Starting a business with confidence
• Thinking big and supportive
• Committing to doing things differently

This publication also highlights 3 socially-committed entrepreneurs :

The bookshop ‘Les intrus’, which combines culture and social links in the heart of Saint-Etienne

The association ‘DEFI production’, which trains young people from working-class neighbourhoods in the film industry in Toulouse

And finally ‘Présent & sens’, which reinvents business gifts through local and responsible production in the Centre Val de Loire region.

It focuses on two surveys carried out with our partners: women and entrepreneurship (in partnership with the French Banking Federation) and the French and socially responsible savings (in partnership with Fair).

Finally, it highlights our ‘Place de l'émergence’, a scheme aimed at entrepreneurs seeking funding to test their business model and develop their project.
