YOUNG GROWS Prize – ladepeche.fr

Like every year, the Septuors ceremony in the Lot is one of the last to conclude this extensive tour of Occitanie where the innovative and deserving companies of our territories are presented. With a certain enthusiasm, we are rediscovering major players as new gems with entrepreneurs who are not afraid to embark on new projects, new markets.

This 2024 ceremony, which will be held on Tuesday, November 26 at the Palais des Congrès in Souillac from 6 p.m., will celebrate various winners in the Young Starts, Innovation, Industry, Commerce, Tourism & Leisure categories, or even a special CCI du Lot prize. Indeed, numerous partners are once again supporting the event, including Prévifrance, Cerfrance, Souillac town hall, Cauvaldor, the Evelyne agency and CCI 46.

The Partner

Samuel Roudayre, chartered accountant and Territory Manager, CERFRANCE Lot

What kind of local actor is CERFRANCE today in the Lot?

Cerfrance Lot is a Management and Accounting Association registered with the Order of Chartered Accountants of Occitanie. We have 130 employees spread across 8 agencies located exclusively in the Lot for around 3,000 customers. Our association is part of the Cerfrance network which is a major player in accounting and business consulting in France.

Our operation is the opposite of accounting firms because due to our associative status our clients are also members and they can be, through the Board of Directors, the leaders of our company. Thus, our customers are more than customers, they are members. The purpose of the CERFRANCE Lot is to support all entrepreneurs by facilitating the control and success of their projects, and thus participate in the development of the local economy.

What actions are you taking with businesses in the Lot, and what systems are you relying on?

In accordance with the purpose of our association, our teams support all entrepreneurs in the Lot region on a daily basis. Within our company we develop various support in areas such as accounting expertise, tax and property legal advice, human resources and payroll, marketing and strategic management advice, business transfer, etc. Specific support is dedicated in particular to business creators in order to enable the success of their projects.

Our geographic proximity allows us to forge many links and partnerships with the Lot ecosystem with the aim of contributing to the success of our members and simplifying their daily lives. We are working in advance on subjects that will gradually become established, such as digital technology, electronic invoicing, CSR, carbon footprint, etc.

What meaning does this “Jeunes Pousses” prize that you are going to present have for you?

This award highlights creativity, daring but also the courage it takes to venture into our rural territory. It is an honor for me as a native Lotois to present a prize which embodies the future of our territory, and it is with great pleasure that we support these business creators in their projects. These are the craziest ideas that build the future.
