Project presentation
Following a successful first edition supported by the Foundation, La Ruche launched a new edition of Les Audacieuses in 2016. This competition aims to promote women’s entrepreneurship, as women remain underrepresented among business creators, by specifically targeting women from the Île-de-France region with a social innovation business project.
Among the applicants, 16 women were selected to take part in two days of workshops and exchanges focused on business creation. Eight participants were then chosen to join La Ruche’s incubator and receive support for nine months to develop and bring their projects to life. At the end of the programme, awards were given to the entrepreneurs to help them continue developing their initiatives.
