Vilaj: a new concept of accommodation and conviviality

Matthieu Chavanel is launching Vilaj, a new hotel concept wishing to reinvent the conviviality of a village square in the heart of the territories by mixing different types of activities within the same place.

 

It is about (re)creating an innovative living space in the heart of the city, where residents and travellers can meet. Each Vilaj will be the ambassador of local identity through its activities, its local supply strategy and the very appearance of each of the buildings which will take on the specific heritage of the territory. Accompanied by EXTENDAM, the initiators of the concept are betting on a daring renewal of the French accommodation offer, adapted to changing public expectations.

SSE companies are more resilient!

Companies of the social and solidarity economy are more resistant to the health crisis. This resilience can be explained by their economic model which attempts to combine profitability, social and environmental utility.

 

If their governance model, associating managers, employees and shareholders is a bulwark against economic instability, this resilience also comes from the profile of the employees: “They are more committed talents, with a strong determination for the causes defended by their employer” specifies Jean Moreau, co-president of the Mouvement Impact France.

 

This economic viability leads SSE actors to advocate a paradigm shift in France’s economic policies.
