To enable and facilitate these companies' access to experienced managers: business developers (BDM), or other types of profiles that could assist in the management (CFO, COO, CTO...).
The application for the CxO aid must be introduced through the contact form linked on this page. WSL will then forward the application form to be filled. The application can be introduced at any given time ("one-stop shop" principle for aids).
