The social
entrepreneurship program Renault Mobiliz is supporting “Ticket for Change”,
an innovative program that aims to provide a springboard for a new generation
of entrepreneurs driving change in France.
“Ticket for Change” seeks to help young people to unlock
their potential and use their talents for the social good, aiming to change
their own lives so that they can then change the lives of others.
Between August 26 and
September 5, 2014, fifty young people selected from around France will
travel around the country to meet 30 pioneers in social innovation.
Renault founded the social entrepreneurship program, Renault
Mobiliz, in 2012.The program aims to remove barriers to mobility, in particular
by helping people in social and financial difficulty gain access to employment.
Through the investment fund Mobiliz Invest, the Group is financing young
socially responsible companies providing mobility solutions and creating jobs.
Claire Martin,
Vice-President, Corporate Social Responsibility: “It is only natural for
Renault to support “Ticket for Change”. Imagining future mobility requires
monitoring and prospective studies, but it also involves encouraging
entrepreneurship and implementing practical projects. This nationwide tour of
young entrepreneurs will identify the expectations of society along with the
best practices in technical and social innovation to contribute to improving
people’s everyday lives”.
“Ticket for change” is receiving financial support from
Renault Mobiliz, along with loans of vehicles for the entrepreneurs’ nationwide
tour. Renault employees will then provide coaching to support them during the
year
