success story
Gabriella Scapicchio
"Mayor"
Le Village by CA Milan
"Econocom has been able to respond to our needs in a reactive and proactive way and I am thrilled that it is one of the «founding» partners and the technological partner of Le Village by CA. Its contribution has in fact been fundamental in orchestrating all the assets and complex processes that animate our hub, enabling the principles of collaboration and open innovation that inspire it."
The client:
Le Village by CA is the open innovation project through which the Crédit Agricole banking group presents itself in Italy to support young companies with high innovation and growth potential. It has 39 centers between France, Italy and Luxembourg, with more than 1,000 supported startups and over 600 international partner companies.
The challenge:
Le Village by CA wanted to create a multifunctional space where startups could express themselves in complete freedom, providing innovative tools and services; a true ecosystem in which everyone contributes to the growth of Le Village, creating a circular economy which finds its definition in the concept of "collaborating to innovate".
Le Village by CA asked Econocom for a timely intervention to quickly find a flexible solution that could integrate multiple "actors", such as partners, start-ups and people.
Our solution:
Econocom exploited intra-company skills ( Econocom and Asystel Italia) to create a smart campus in line with the mission of Le Village by CA with a holistic approach.
Starting from the journey and needs of the hub users, Econocom has selected the most suitable technologies to design and implement a seamless digital experience capable of promoting collaboration, integration and smart working practices, through a unique platform developed in-house. This allows the hub to manage as a service and in pay-per-use mode, access to the facility, management of consumption and booking of resources (meeting rooms, desks, printers, ...)
The benefits to the customer:
- Seamless digital experience for internal and external users
- Collaboration, efficiency, productivity and the ability to accelerate innovation through smart working practices and technologies
- Governance and coordination of all assets and processes within the hub
