What we do?

Focus on the development of connected things & services in 3 vertical domains

Smart Industry

The world is in anticipation of the 4rd industrial revolution which will alter the industry the coming decades. We are ready for this challenge.

Precision Agriculture

Food production must increase by 70% by 2050 to feed the world population. Transformation and reorientation of the agricultural systems is needed to sustainably increase the productivity, reducing/removing greenhouses gas emissions & the use of pesticides, saving the bees…

Smart City

By 2050 70% of the world’s populations will be based in cities compared to 50% today resulting in an increasing demand for a better quality of life by using technology to improve the efficiency of services and meet residents’ needs.

A Smart City needs solutions that can be implemented with respect for local practices and job creation. Furthermore, comparability, easy sharing of best practices, and avoiding vendor lock-in is necessary to enhance a Smart City: OASC, thus, provides linkage – to cities all over the world – and advocates de facto standards for participating cities.</span></p>

Faubourg Numérique is partner in the Interreg 2 seas project SCIFI. This smart city project aims at activating the market for
innovative solutions to improve public service delivery using data. Cities collaborate on identifying shared challenges
in mobility, energy and environment. They jointly explore innovative procurement methods to work with businesses in developing data-based solutions, implementing them in living labs, and demonstrating the value of opening data.

Faubourg Numérique has initiated and animated the collaboration of the French cities to become members of Open & Agile Smart Cities (OASC). Faubourg Numérique is the representative of France in the global OASC network and one of the first city angel investors of this global network. 4 collaborative pilot projects have already initiated by the cities in the frame of OASC with the support of Faubourg Numérique and local universities.

iHub.eu, Faubourg in the top 3 of 28 iHubs: hubs all across Europe to push technology into profitable services. FIWARE is here to facilitate the move forward. Based on our experience as Google Developer Group and regional hackathons organizer, Faubourg Numérique organizes events and incentives around the FIWARE technologies and opportunities in order to stimulate the local developer community and business creation.

Faubourg Numérique is part of the IoT European Platforms Initiative through our participation in the Be-IoT consortium (the business engine for IoT pilots.

Faubourg Numérique is mainly contributing in 2 objectives of the work programs: Redesign the education about IoT and the uptake of IoT technology by SME’s
