A woman ahead of her time

The name ‘Marie Monin’ origins from France and is inspired by the female spy, Virginia Hall, who supported the French resistance movement during 2. World War. She had several code names and one of them was ‘Marie Monin’. With heart, wisdom and great courage, she made a significant difference. We chose the name ‘Marie Monin’ because of our admiration to her endeavours.
