10 Years of Making a Difference

The difference is felt when an idea becomes reality,
when a dream transforms into a project.

The difference lies in supporting those who dare,
to develop dynamic, inclusive, and sustainable living communities.

The vitality of our neighborhoods is born
from the dreams of entrepreneurs,
from bold collective projects,
from local ambitions.

We bring together the strengths of the community,
to support models that think outside the box.

We understand the needs of the territory,
so that businesses and communities can reinvent themselves.

A collective movement that creates changes.
A committed ally that makes a difference.

The strength of the Centre-East team lies in putting the social economy at the service of local businesses, sharing their expertise to move projects forward. The entire team works together to launch new initiatives that have a real impact on the community. Without them, CycloChrome wouldn't be where it is today.

Beyond the funding, the attentive listening and support of the PME MTL team made all the difference, helping us transform ambitious ideas into concrete projects. We were able to take a new step: adapting and promoting our solutions in the life sciences, recycling, and industrial sorting sectors.
