As part of the Eco-Valley territorial project, the development operation Nice Méridia is one of the priority projects under the management of the EPA Plaine du Var. Located in the city of Nice, at the heart of the Azurean metropolis, the urban technopole Nice Méridia extends northward, from the Grand Arénas business district and near the Nice Côte d’Azur International Airport to the Allianz Riviera eco-district.
Aimed at becoming one of the main drivers of innovation and economic development in the heart of the Eco-Valley territory, Nice Méridia will be a highly attractive space for businesses.
For Christian Devillers, its designer, “Nice Méridia is the city of tomorrow, a technopole that fully embraces urban life.”
One of the main assets of Nice Méridia is its ability to combine the specific advantages of a technopole with the benefits of an urban location where everything is accessible.
The concept of an “urban technopole,” through its content, spatial organization, and mode of operation, aims to combine the specific advantages of generally suburban technopoles (R&D, higher education, “cross-fertilization,” creation of new companies…) with the benefits derived from being located in a truly dense urban fabric: functional diversity (housing, businesses, services, activities), access to public transportation, reduced home-to-work travel distances, urban vitality outside office hours, proximity and quality of commercial, sports, and entertainment offerings.
Aimed at becoming one of the main drivers of innovation and economic development in the heart of the Eco-Valley territory, Nice Méridia will be a highly attractive space for businesses.
