CLE HAITI
If a change will come,
we should bring it."
Through its Angaje programme, CLE has devoted the last twelve months to supporting the emancipation of around a hundred young entrepreneurs, helping them with their personal development, formalising and developing their businesses through specialised training and personalised follow-up. This year, CLE is bringing this programme to a close with the 5th edition of the ‘Chanpyon Lakay’ competition, an opportunity to reveal and reward these fast-growing social entrepreneurs.
The Chanpyon Lakay competition offers participants in the Angaje programme the unique opportunity to win a significant grant, aimed at strengthening the growth and development of their businesses. But more than just a competition, Chanpyon Lakay is a true celebration of entrepreneurial excellence, highlighting the innovative and inspiring initiatives of these young entrepreneurs. By honouring their creativity and commitment, we aim to raise the profile of their businesses and encourage public involvement in this positive dynamic.
The competition will culminate in December 2024 with the selection of the winners, who will receive grants to support the development of their businesses. In this way, Chanpyon Lakay aims to showcase the innovation and community involvement of young entrepreneurs, helping to build a promising future for all.
