NEWSLETTER MARCH 2020

Good morning, everyone,

In these times of crisis, here is some news about the Citizenfund and the projects it funds.

Remember, the Citizenfund is more than an investment fund; it is a network of more than 140 cooperators and more than 350 supporters. If you would like to relay information to our community or if you need help, don’t hesitate to contact us !

? The Citizenfund is funding two new projects

BC Materials and Incofin CVSO have joined the 8 social enterprises previously funded by the Citizenfund following our validation session on March 4th !

? The Citizenfund joins the Matters consortium and launches the “HackCovid”

We have recently joined the MATTERS consortium, an improvised entrepreneurial ecosystem made up of different actors of change, already involved in the economic transition, and mobilized around the theme of urban resilience. In view of the current situation, we have decided to accelerate the process of reflection and co-creation. And you can contribute to this by registering for HACKCOVID (www.hackcovid.co), an online hackathon to think post-crisis!
