The first edition of the ACEM Economic Trophies, held on October 15 in Collégien, honored companies and entrepreneurs contributing to the dynamism of Marne-la-Vallée and, more broadly, of Seine-et-Marne. The CCI Seine-et-Marne, a partner of this event, emphasized the importance of valuing local know-how and the territory's entrepreneurial energy.
Facing an uncertain economic context, leaders demonstrated their resilience and ability to turn difficulties into opportunities. Jean-Marc Garnier, president of ACEM, recalled the ambition of these trophies: to highlight entrepreneurial successes and create a meeting point for the economic dynamism of Marne-la-Vallée. The mayor of Collégien, Marc Pinauteau, and the sub-prefect of Torcy, Alain Ngouoto, delivered messages of support and stressed the importance of adaptation and collaboration.
The CCI Seine-et-Marne actively participated in the event, from selecting companies to communication. Its president reiterated the CCI's mission to support businesses at every stage of their development, from creation to transfer, including recruitment and ecological transition. Emphasis was placed on bridging the gap between training and the territory's economic needs, particularly through UTEC, the CCI's CFA.
Seven awards were presented to recognize diverse journeys: the Reprise-Transmission Trophy to Clever Technologies (chaired by Jordan Nzuzi Bunzeyl), the Growth Trophy to L.E.M (chaired by Franck Dimitri), the Ecological Transition Trophy to KI SPACE Hôtel & Spa (chaired by Pierre-Mary Bachelet), the Human Enterprise Trophy to the Hôtel L’Élysée Val d’Europe, the Women's Entrepreneurship Trophy to ComeOnSpeakUp, the Local Craftsmanship Trophy to Verière (founded by Floriane Loux), and the ACEM Special Prize to Bardusch (represented by Julien Milet).
This first edition highlighted the faces and stories behind the territory's economic vitality. The main message of the evening emphasized that uncertainty should lead not to renunciation, but to resilience, supported by networks, partners, and local support, such as that offered by the CCI Seine-et-Marne.
