Entrepreneurs, your success deserves to be rewarded!

You've built or taken over a company, and you're helping it grow by innovating and creating lasting jobs in France?

The Yvon Gattaz - Elizabeth Ducottet prize is your chance to make a name for yourself.

More than just an award, the Yvon Gattaz Elizabeth Ducottet Prize, with its credo "Start is good, Up is better", aims to shine the spotlight on small and medium-sized businesses with between 30 and 200 employees, the future undisputed and enduring champions in their respective fields.

After Elizabeth Ducottet teamed up with the Yvon Gattaz prize, the prize rewards two female and two male entrepreneurial candidates with 6,000 Euros for first prize and 2,500 Euros for second prize.

But above all, this distinction gives the winners and their companies exceptional visibility with customers, partners and institutions such as the Banque de France, the French Ministry of the Economy or METI, as well as exposure in media such as Les Echos, BFM or Challenge.

The award ceremony will take place on June 25, 2025 at the prestigious Hôtel de l'Industrie, in the presence of leading figures from the worlds of business, industry and the media.
