​LOCAL NEWS - APRIL 23, 2021 - Congrats to the winners of the CSSL for the 23rd OSEntreprendre Challenge!

The OSEntreprendre Challenge is a major Québec movement that acknowledges the entrepreneurial initiatives of thousands of participants each year, from young people from elementary school to
University to new entrepreneurs. The OSEntreprendre Challenge is deployed and takes root at the local, regional and provincial levels. More than 350 representatives are mobilized in all 17 regions of Québec to help carry the OSEntreprendre Challenge and shine the spotlight on projects in their communities.

In total, nine projects from six schools were submitted for this 23rd edition. Sixty-six young entrepreneurs, from kindergarten to secondary 5, put in hundreds of hours of work on projects that will have a concrete impact on their community. The jury was impressed by the quality of the projects submitted and hopes to see the projects of our youth spread throughout our region.
