Groupe ADP provides innovative companies with an exceptional territory, expertise, visibility and financing capabilities.
The "Innovation Hub" program embodies this challenge of transformation and competitiveness by putting into perspective the open innovation approach conducted since 2010.
This approach has led to the implementation of projects such as automatic baggage drop-offs, the transport mode comparison service and the PRIMA digital mobility tool, which enables teams on the ground to reach out to passengers to better welcome and inform them.
"The launch of the Innovation Hub program is a response to the dual challenge of transformation and competitiveness. Our holistic approach covers multiple fields of application, from smart airports to new mobility, from robotics to CSR. Our airports are real living laboratories. The innovations we develop are deployed on the Paris hubs and soon on an international scale through our network of airports," says Edward Arkwright, Deputy CEO of Groupe ADP.
Innovation Hub" is based on three complementary levers: OPEN, CONNECT and INVEST
- OPEN: to ensure the dissemination of the innovation culture through conferences, immersion programs and challenges;
- CONNECT: a program dedicated to young innovative companies that supports, gives visibility and accelerates the realization of experimental projects;
- INVEST: a dedicated envelope, similar to an internal investment fund, with €16 million to support the financing needs of startups in a co-development approach.
