Three female entrepreneurs from Groupe 3737 Advance to the Melamoon National Finals
Groupe 3737 is proud to announce that El Gibbor Djiki, founder of Twish Cart; Ingrid Konan, founder of Distribution Armel Inc.; and Khalie Annama, founder of Crokvital, are among the 10 finalists from the Montreal region selected for the national finals of the Melamoon pitch competition, organized by FACE Coalition.
We warmly congratulate these three female entrepreneurs, supported by the Groupe, on this wonderful recognition, which is a testament to their boldness, their vision, and the vitality of entrepreneurship that stems from diversity.
The Groupe also highlights the participation of its CEO, Maudeleine Myrthil, EMBA, as a member of the selection committee—a role that underscores the importance, for Groupe 3737 and its CEO, of actively supporting initiatives that promote ethnocultural entrepreneurship.
A sincere thank you to FACE Coalition and its CEO and co-founder, Tiffany Callender, for organizing this competition, as well as to Liban Abokor, co-founder of the Foundation for Black Communities (FFBC), for their leadership in promoting Black entrepreneurship in Canada.
Thank you also to TD Bank Group and Christian Bassong, Regional Director of Business Development and Black Communities, for their commitment to and support of entrepreneurs from diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds.
