Testimonials
Thank you for the time you spend with people. The advising and listening on the part of the CAE is remarkable. Of course, I would like to thank you for the financial assistance, but above all, what touches me is the fact that you have always taken the time to listen to me and advise me. You are always there to visit us and to note our progress. Entrepreneurs need loans, but they need advice and someone to listen even more. Thanks again!

Efficiency, speed, confidence! For me, this is what the CAE represents, and every time I meet an emerging entrepreneur, I don’t hesitate to refer them!

The CAE was there to finalize the financing required for launching the project, and we are very grateful!
