Design of a Business Plan
Before sending us your request, we advise you to read our financing strategy.
The partnership proposal (research of financing for your company) must be underpinned by a BUSINESS PLAN. Considered as a true statement of faith of the business project leader, the BUSINESS PLAN must demonstrate the solidity of your initiative, by expressing information in a very methodical and well-structured way. In order to submit your project to us for a possible financing request, your BUSINESS PLAN must provide us with the following elements:
- Knowledge of your company;
- Knowledge of the environment in which your business operates;
- A projection of your business into a legible future 3-5 years;
- A critical analysis of your company’s prosperity in the immediate future.
N. B. Once you have completed your Business Plan, you can submit it to us via the dedicated form under this page.
Presentation of your company
You must provide us with as much information as possible about:
- Your company history (this is only valid for any existing company);
- The legal form of your business ;
- The share capital and ownership structure of your company;

N. B.: In order for your application to be admissible, you must attach to this presentation:
- The statuts of the company (this applies to all companies);
- The last three activity reports (this applies only to any existing company).
What does your company do?
