Cartier Women’s Initiative Awards
The Cartier Women’s Initiative Awards are open for applications until April 15, 2007 and will be given for the first time at the third edition of the Women’s Forum for the Economy and Society (October 11-13, 2007). Launched in October 2006 by Cartier and the Women’s Forum for the Economy and Society with the support of McKinsey & Company and the INSEAD, the Cartier Women’s Initiative Awards are a unique project to promote entrepreneurial values and foster the passion for initiative. Each year, five innovative projects led by women will be rewarded with a US$ 20 000 grant at the end of an international business plan competition. In addition to financial help, winners will also receive coaching support and gain access to valuable resources needed to set up a successful venture. An exceptional opportunity to connect with women entrepreneurs from around the world and meet world-class leaders, this competition will also enable participants to benefit from quality media visibility.
