The Nice Côte d’Azur Metropolis has been committed to economic diversification since 2008 and has bet on innovation, digital technology, and new sectors that generate jobs and growth.
As the driving force of the Nice Côte d’Azur Metropolis in supporting start-ups, the Nice Côte d’Azur Business Incubator has enabled the creation of 124 start-ups and 619 jobs, consistently improving its level of services for project leaders.
The French Tech label attests to the economic dynamism of the territory, and it establishes Nice Côte d’Azur, a world-class smart city and finalist for the European Capital of Innovation Award 2017, as the beacon of economic development in the Alpes-Maritimes.
A recognized major player in regional innovation, the Business Incubator of the Nice Côte d’Azur Metropolis, labeled as a European Center for Enterprises and Innovation (CEEI), takes on a new stature by becoming the Totem building of the French Tech Côte d’Azur.
French Tech Côte d’Azur has chosen to set up the Totem building at the CEEI.
This inauguration, by Prefect Leclerc, will be followed by the Côte d’Azur Innovation Awards Ceremony, during which Christian Estrosi, president of the Metropolis, will honor the journey and success of 24 local start-ups.
