FAQ
The inclusive economy is based on these 5 concepts:
- Participation - People are able to participate fully in economic life thanks to transparency and shared knowledge of the rules and standards for setting up a business or finding a job.
- Fairness - All segments of society, particularly poor or socially disadvantaged groups, are able to take advantage of opportunities, including access to goods, services and public infrastructure. Inequalities are decreasing rather than increasing.
- Growth - Opportunities for employment and quality work are increasing and incomes are rising, particularly for the poor. Growth and economic transformation are not just about GDP, but must include and be measured by other outcomes that reflect overall well-being.
- Stability - Individuals, households, communities and businesses are confident enough to invest in their future and predict the outcomes of their economic decisions.
- Sustainability - Economic and social wealth is maintained over time, preserving intergenerational well-being. Economic and social wealth is the social value of all assets that contribute to human well-being, including man-made capital (manufactured, financial, human, social) and natural capital.
CSR stands for Corporate Social Responsibility.
These are companies that are committed to promoting social and environmental responsibility by adopting ethical, fair and responsible practices in their activities and by meeting the expectations of all their stakeholders.
Our customers say it best
Carole Tankeu
Maryann is a pleasure to work with! She's dynamic and enthusiastic. She combines Anglo-Saxon pragmatism with African good humour. Her dual culture and professional background are undoubtedly assets for this young entrepreneur, who reflects the image of the African 2.0 diaspora.
Mibay Tassoua
Maryann is a dynamic and attentive professional. Responsive, she was able to identify my needs immediately and put me in touch with the right partners.

I've enjoyed working with Maryann, her energy can move the earth in favour of her clients. It is rare to find a representative who will fight for one's brand as passionately as a Founder would, Maryann is that person. You can rest assured that she has your full interest at heart when she represents you. I believe her distinguishing quality is that she operates with heart and might and that makes her such a powerful force in her space.
Helping others, Sharing, Fairness
"People who develop the capacity to continually acquire new and better forms of knowledge, which they can apply to their work and their lives, will be the drivers of our society for the indefinite future".
