Inauguration: La Fabrique Numérique of the Smart Territory Opens in Angers
The Fabrique numérique du territoire intelligent has just opened its doors in Angers, with Christophe Béchu, Mayor and President of the Angers Loire Métropole local authority, in attendance. A place for teaching and collaboratively developing the services of tomorrow for a smart and sustainable region, this Factory serves as a hub for collaboration among citizens, the Angers Loire Métropole teams, and all of the project’s partners.
A one-stop shop serving local authorities
The Fabrique numérique local authority digital factory aims to serve as a forum—a space for dialogue among all stakeholders. It brings together elected officials, users, citizens, local government officials, and project partners to address three primary goals:
- Educating people about new applications, particularly in the areas of public lighting solutions, safety, digital twins, and hypervisor systems;
- Providing highly practical training for all teams working in the field, particularly through awareness-raising modules;
- Jointly developing and supporting these new applications.
Immersion, prototyping, training
In addition to the solutions deployed throughout the region, the opening of the Factory offers
an opportunity to provide a very concrete explanation of how the process of creating, implementing, and deploying the innovative services offered to residents and public service users actually works.
With figures, pictures, and explanations, the approach is truly educational and based on real-life examples. Through events and workshops, it is now possible to understand the mechanisms involved in moving from an idea to its implementation in the field. Parking and access to information on healthcare services available in the greater Angers area are just some of the issues addressed at the Factory.
Developed in collaboration with the local government and partners, the tools available at the Factory help participants better understand the entire smart territory project and the benefits that result from the deployment of digital technologies.
