This informs the public about the Orange Social Venture Prize in Africa and the Middle East 2024. Details about the Program are given below.
An undeniable catalyst for progress, technological innovation can only reach its full potential if it is supported by a solid, viable business proposition that meets current and future social and environmental needs.
Program Details
As well as encouraging innovation, Orange also rewards the positive entrepreneurial spirit of dynamic start-ups within the framework of its Social Venture Prize. Since 2011 this International Grand Prix competition has welcomed start-ups from 17 countries in Africa and the Middle East. It identifies, rewards, and supports business propositions that make a positive social and environmental impact.
To encourage sustainable, responsible, and inclusive development, the International Women’s Prize was introduced in 2020, promoting business ventures led by women entrepreneurs.
Prize
As a powerful driver of economic development around the world and a major force in combatting gender inequalities, female entrepreneurship holds great promise for the future.
That’s why Orange launched the International Women’s Prize in 2020 to encourage the emergence and success of business propositions led by women or aimed at enhancing women’s lives.
Offering a €20,000-award, plus 6 to 9 months of business and technical support, this prize contributes to women’s empowerment as well as their digital and financial inclusion.
