Impact start-ups: Manutan Group unveils the 12 finalists for the 6th edition of its “Moov’with Manutan” programme

Delivered in partnership with Moovjee, the association supporting young entrepreneurs and student entrepreneurs, the programme backs founders whose business models place CSR, meaningful innovation and the sustainable transformation of businesses at their core. At the end of the competition, the winning start-ups will benefit from 12 months of tailored support to help develop their offering, office space on Manutan Group’s European campus, and the opportunity to build strategic partnerships within the Group’s B2B ecosystem. At a time when funding conditions are becoming more challenging for impact start-ups, Manutan Group is reaffirming its commitment to more responsible B2B innovation. Open from 21 April to 30 June 2026, the call for applications for this 6th edition of Moov’with Manutan was aimed at entrepreneurs looking to accelerate their growth in France or internationally through a B2B solution with a strong CSR commitment.

Following the selection process, 12 start-ups were chosen to continue the journey and present their projects to a panel of industry professionals. The panel, made up of members of Manutan Group’s Executive Committee and Moovjee, together with a customer, a supplier and a former winner, will select the successful start-ups in September.

The winners will benefit from a 12-month acceleration programme, co-designed with the Group’s business experts, personalised mentoring, privileged access to Manutan Group’s B2B business ecosystem, and tangible opportunities to test and refine their offering while accelerating their growth.
