Quebec, April 14, 2025<\/strong> \u2013 At a time when several organizations supporting entrepreneurs are facing budget cuts, leaving many businesses without essential support, the\u00a0R\u00e9seau des SADC et
CAE\u00a0<\/span>wants to reaffirm its presence, strategic role, and unwavering commitment to entrepreneurs across Quebec.<\/p>

For over 40 years, we have been actively contributing to the economic vitality of regions by providing funding, guidance, and strategic support to businesses. The dramatic impacts of budget cuts to the organization Espace-inc directly concern us: it highlights the current fragility of the entrepreneurial ecosystem and the vital importance of stable and accessible assistance.<\/p>

\u201cIn this rather bleak period for some of our strategic partners, I want to reiterate my support and solidarity so they can continue to be part of the solution for thousands of businesses in Quebec. Entrepreneurs are the real wealth creators, and we must support them,\u201d affirms Pascal Harvey, President and CEO of the\u00a0R\u00e9seau des SADC et
CAE<\/span>.<\/p>

An essential complementarity among economic actors<\/strong><\/p>

Each support organization plays a unique and complementary role. The\u00a0R\u00e9seau des SADC et
CAE<\/span>\u00a0firmly believes in the importance of a diverse and solid entrepreneurial ecosystem, where the strengths of each combine to better support the growth of businesses. Our organizations, with their regional roots, local expertise, and ability to offer personalized and tailored support, form an essential link in this chain.<\/p>

Entrepreneurs must be able to rely on a varied range of services: incubators, accelerators, funding organizations, and mentoring, each providing invaluable value. The current budget cuts jeopardize this balance and increase the risk of isolation for entrepreneurs, particularly those operating in remote areas far from major centers.<\/p>

Now more than ever, entrepreneurs can count on us<\/strong><\/p>

In this uncertain context, the\u00a0R\u00e9seau des SADC et
CAE<\/span>\u00a0wishes to reassure entrepreneurs: we remain true to our mission of supporting entrepreneurship and local economic development. Our 57 SADC and 10 CAE, present throughout Quebec, continue to:<\/p>
