According to Tatiana Jama, co-founder of the SISTA collective, the launch of the platform is based on the strong vision of entrepreneurship shared by Veuve Clicquot and SISTA: “The world is going through an unprecedented crisis, which shows our degree of interconnection and our dependence on each other, and there have been magnificent outbursts of solidarity. This crisis can accentuate gender inequalities or be an opportunity to re-imagine tomorrow. Together with Veuve Clicquot, we share an optimistic vision and a desire to make concrete change. It is in this context that we created the SISTA x BOLD program.”
SISTA x BOLD has a well-defined ambition to responds to SISTA and Veuve Clicquot’s shared objective to nurture a generation of diverse leaders and to encourage successive generations of women to be bolder and more ambitious.
“Our Maison has worked alongside women entrepreneurs for so many years that it would have been unthinkable for us not to respond to our community’s call in the face of this unprecedented crisis. Even though the crisis affects us all, more than ever we want to support these entrepreneurs through this period. It is one of our priorities and we are pleased to be able to take action with SISTA,” says Jean-Marc Gallot, CEO of Veuve Clicquot and future SISTA x BOLD mentor.
