About the OSEntreprendre Challenge
The aim of the Défi OSEntreprendre is to support the development of entrepreneurship in Quebec by rewarding concrete initiatives in both the Student Entrepreneurship and Business Creation segments, throughout the province. Through its Business Creation program, the Défi encourages entrepreneurs in the early stages of business start-up to present their business projects, and thus contribute to their development.
This major initiative is made possible by the commitment of partners: Desjardins Group, presenting partner, the Quebec government, title partner, Québecor, Vidéotron Affaires, the Ordre des CPA du Québec, Polycor, Saputo and Spektrum Media.
The regional winners will be announced shortly...
This year's Regional Gala will be held on April 28 next in virtual 100% mode. This will be an opportunity to reward the winners of the Challenge, and to share in the excitement and emotion of all these new entrepreneurs who will have the joy of seeing their project rewarded, and who will celebrate the accomplishment of their efforts.
