The Institute of Responsible Capitalism* just announced Air Liquide as the winner of its Grand Prize for shareholder democracy as part of its General Meeting and Gender Balance Awards. This award once again highlights the strong relationship between the Group and its shareholders.

At a ceremony streamed live on the Boursorama website on June 29, the Palme d’Or 2021 des Jeunes Actionnaires (Young Shareholders Golden Palm) award recognized Air Liquide, highlighting its strong performance and the efforts it has made to address new generations of individual shareholders.

The laser show that lit up the Eiffel Tower on May 25 with certified renewable hydrogen lasted only a few minutes (3.5 minutes) but it will go down in history!

Led by its firm commitment to individual share ownership, the Group is inviting people in their 30s to join its family of “Inventors of the future,” a reference to both the Group’s ability to innovate for the future and to the key role of individual shareholders in supporting the development of companies.

Around nine million people in France currently face poverty¹, including almost one million young people between the ages of 16 and 25 who are not in employment, training or education². To deal with this situation, professional integration is a primary focus which is played out at a local level, as close as possible to the most vulnerable groups. The non-profit organization ARES knows this and is an advocate of this approach.
