What STEM4All does

STEM4All (legally STEM4-ALL, SIRET 918 497 942 00014) is a French nonprofit association (loi 1901) headquartered in Amiens, France, founded in 2019 by Daniella Tchana. The organization's mission is to reduce the underrepresentation of women in STEM fields — cited as 28% in engineering schools, 16% in tech, and 27% in research — by running a portfolio of free educational programs targeting female high school students, youth from priority urban neighborhoods (QPV), and African women pursuing international tech education. Its core offerings include the Olympiades F\u00e9minines de Math\u00e9matiques (a 100% digital national math competition now in Season 7 with 5,100 participants), Bootcamp IA and Bootcamp Cybers\u00e9curit\u00e9 (immersive AI and cybersecurity training delivered at EPITECH, EFREI, and other engineering school campuses), Booster Sciences academic tutoring, Mentorat & Marraines (mentorship with 200+ active mentors), ROOTS (priority-neighborhood outreach), and discovery workshops for children as young as 6.

The technology backbone consists of a web-based educational platform (stem4-all.com) supporting program registration, content distribution, and online proctoring for the digital Olympiades, plus a partner-school network of 500+ lyc\u00e9es that serves as recruitment and event infrastructure across 14 cities in France and DOM-TOM. AI capability is delivered through curriculum (prompt engineering, generative AI, ethical AI) rather than proprietary model development. The business model is a donation-and-sponsorship nonprofit structure: all programs are free for participants, with funding drawn from corporate patronage (60% tax-deductible under Article 238 bis CGI), individual donations (66% tax-deductible under Article 200 CGI) via HelloAsso, Taxe d'Apprentissage contributions routed via SOLT\u00c9A, and skills-based volunteering (m\u00e9c\u00e9nat de comp\u00e9tences). Bronze corporate partnerships start at \u20ac10,000/year and individual company-sponsored bursaries run \u20ac10,000/year for 3-year minimum commitments.

The organization is led by a small team of 5 employees under President Daniella Tchana (PhD in mechanical engineering, co-founder of BeSMART-edu), Treasurer Mokhtar Benyahia (IT Project Manager at L'Or\u00e9al), and a board drawing senior figures from EDF (Paran Ossia), Segula Technologies (Sonia Fosse), France Comp\u00e9tence (Pierre Deheunynck), Fondation Math\u00e9matiques Jacques Hadamard (Pascal Maasart), and CONSEQUALLY (Lena Harikiopoulos-Cordova). STEM4All operates a distributed partnership ecosystem spanning 5+ engineering schools (EPITECH, EFREI, ESILV, EPITA, CY Tech, ESIEE Paris), foundations (L'Or\u00e9al, Inria, Cov\u00e9a), corporate sponsors (EDF, Alstom, ODDO BHF, Procter & Gamble, ACER), and cyber-sector organizations (Campus Cyber, Les Cadettes de la Cyber).

Scale indicators13 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• Capital Filles: French nonprofit connecting girls from priority neighborhoods with female mentors in technical and scientific professions. Already listed as a STEM4ALL partner, Capital Filles targets a very similar audience (QPV youth, women in STEM) with a mentorship-led model, making it the most directly comparable peer for STEM4ALL's Mentorat and ROOTS programs.
• Elles Bougent: French nonprofit association promoting women in engineering and technical careers through ambassador programs in schools and industry. Closely comparable mission to STEM4ALL's women-in-STEM focus, with similar engagement of corporate partners and lycées, though Elles Bougent operates more as a role-model/awareness platform without STEM4ALL's olympiad and scholarship depth.
• Social Builder: French nonprofit providing training and support for women from underrepresented backgrounds to access digital and tech careers. Closely aligned with STEM4ALL's Pipeline scholarship mission and priority-neighborhood focus (ROOTS), and serves a comparable audience through bootcamps and apprenticeship pathways.
• Woman in Tech France: French chapter of the global Woman in Tech movement, focused on reducing the gender gap in technology through events, training, and community programs. Comparable to STEM4ALL's Bootcamp IA and Bootcamp Cybersécurité in audience (women entering tech) and corporate engagement model, but more focused on adult professional entry rather than secondary-school pipeline.

Broad incumbents

• Girls in Tech: Global nonprofit running programs, mentorship, and hackathons to support women entering and advancing in technology careers. Comparable to STEM4ALL in the women-in-tech mission and bootcamp-style offerings, but operating globally rather than focusing on the French secondary-to-engineering-school pipeline.
• Fondation L'Oréal For Women in Science: Global L'Oréal-UNESCO program supporting women scientists and girls in STEM through awards, fellowships, and program funding. STEM4ALL's Olympiades has been supported by Fondation L'Oréal since its first season, reflecting the directly comparable mission; L'Oréal For Women in Science is a larger and more globally recognized incumbent operating across more geographies and at more career stages.

Others

• BeSMART-edu: Education venture co-founded by STEM4ALL's founder Daniella Tchana, focused on STEM and digital education. Included as an adjacent organization given shared mission and founder overlap, illustrating the founder's broader portfolio in STEM education.
• Fondation Mathématiques Jacques Hadamard: French foundation supporting mathematics research and education, including programs for young mathematicians. Connected to STEM4ALL via board member Pascal Maasart (president of the foundation), and relevant as a peer institution in promoting math access and excellence in France.

Emerging players

• Passerelles numériques: French-headquartered international nonprofit providing IT and digital education to underprivileged youth in France and Southeast Asia. Comparable in combining scholarships, technical training, and academic support for disadvantaged populations toward tech careers, similar to STEM4ALL's Pipeline and ROOTS programs.
• Diversidays: French nonprofit promoting diversity and inclusion in tech and digital professions through training, events, and corporate programs. Overlaps with STEM4ALL's bootcamps and corporate-partnership model, particularly in targeting underrepresented groups into tech careers, though broader than gender-only.
