Recent winners include Chrystèle Gimaret, founder of eco-friendly daily cleaning service Artupox, and Saskia Bruysten, founder of Yunus Social Business.
Extending its Bold by Vueve Clicquot effort supporting women entrepreneurs in France, the Champagne brand recently partnered with the SISTA collective to create a new program called SISTA x BOLD.
The program is dedicated to supporting women entrepreneurs as they recover from the economic slowdown caused by the COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak and the resultant lockdowns worldwide. Key to the effort is putting women entrepreneurs in touch with 100 mentors offering 1,000 hours of personalized guidance and discussion (see story).
