Maison Veuve Clicquot presents 53rd Bold Woman Award during sparkling dinner in Paris 

Veuve Clicquot presented the 53rd Bold Woman Award during a very special dinner at the Collège des Bernardins in Paris.

Centred on the theme of transmission, the evening was hosted by the duo Sophie Fontanel and Nine d’Urso, and featured an intimate showcase by Julien Clerc alongside his daughter Vanille. 

Launched in 1972, the Bold Woman Award and the Bold Future Award, created in 2014, have for over 50 years honored the legacy of Madame Clicquot, celebrating some 500 women entrepreneurs around the world. 

For the 53rd edition, the Bold Woman Award 2025 was presented to Élise Cabanes for the EPOCA geriatric telemonitoring solution she developed to re-emphasize a human touch in remote monitoring for both caregivers and patients. The Bold Future Award 2025 went to Charlotte Couallier for her startup DATTAK, a specialist in cyberinsurance.  

The bold approach of the two entrepreneurial endeavors, focused on preventive technologies, was saluted by Veuve Clicquot CEO Thomas Mulliez and the 11 other members of the jury, who noted: “This year’s theme of transmission – passing on knowledge and inspiration across generations – embodies the continuity we champion. From Madame Clicquot to the present, the Bold community continues to promote boldness as an essential value.” 

This year’s winners join the Bold community of nearly 500 women entrepreneurs around the world.
