Grand Prix des Jeunes Créateurs de Commerce - Great Prize for Young Retail Entrepreneurs

Launched in 2007, the Grand Prize for the Young Retail Entrepreneurs aims at putting the spotlights on innovative retail concepts, in major Unibail-Rodamco shopping centres. For its 11th edition, the Group took the decision to extend the application period until May 2nd.

The 11th edition of the Grand Prize for Young Retail Entrepreneurs is about to start. Retail entrepreneurs can apply until May 2nd. For 10 years now, Unibail-Rodamco has been offering an opportunity to startups to show how disruptive and innovative they are. Among the laureates, you can find rising companies such as Tediber, Jimmy Fairly, Persillé, Lunettes pour Tous or Bloomizon. The winners of the contest can expect to be accompanied by experts, particularly in terms of communication strategy and commercialisation in Unibail-Rodamco shopping centres such as the Forum des Halles, the 4 Temps, Rosny 2, Vélizy 2 and So Ouest. Every year, three awards are attributed: the Great Prize, the “Coup de Coeur” Prize, and the Boutique.com Prize, with an allocation from €175,000 to €1,000,000.

The contest is a true breeding ground for new ideas and innovation, as it has been created to value the Group’s expertise and the opportunities it offers in terms of creativity. In mid-May, 16 startups will be preselected, before a public vote is organised, followed by the pitch of the 8 final applicants in June. Coaching and personalised mentoring will take place from July to September. Prizes will be attributed on September 21st, in attendance of the jury members, including Mercedes Erras (founder @ BETC), Olivier Saguez (President & Director @ Saguez & Partners) and Christophe Cuvillier (Chairman of the Board @ Unibail-Rodamco).
