Call for entries - Soirée des Pépites 2024, the great evening of entrepreneurship!

We are organizing the Soirée des Pépites, the Grande Soirée de l'Entrepreneuriat, on Thursday May 16, 2024 at 6:30 pm, at the Bpi, 8 Bd Haussmann, 75009 Paris .

In this context, we are launching a call for applications from our community of entrepreneurs who are lifetime members of the EM Normandie Alumni Association, to take part in this grand final in one of the following categories:

• Positive Impact Award
• Made In Normandie Award
• Innovative Idea Award
• Young Nugget Award (company created less than 3 years ago)
• Best Hope Award (project in progress).

A final prize will be awarded to the winner of the public vote.

Would you like to apply?

It's very simple. Just fill in this form and send a 1-minute pitch video to Elise THIFAGNE.

Deadline for applications: Sunday April 14, 2024.

Two finalists in each category will be selected ahead of the event by a jury made up of EM Normandie graduates, staff and entrepreneurship professionals, and their names will be announced on May 16. They will be asked to give a one-minute pitch, followed by a one-minute Q&A with the jury.

Winners in the Positive Impact, Made In Normandie, Innovative Idea, Young Nugget and People's Choice categories will each receive a cheque for €4,000, and the Best Hopeful prize: funding for support from the EM Normandie Incubator.

The awards ceremony will be followed by a cocktail reception.

We will of course be pleased to offer all candidates a ticket for the evening.
