Nantes

Nantes has been an industrial city over the last decades, thanks to its naval construction site situated in its heart, Ile de Nantes. In 2019, the landscape changed a lot and the neighborhood, today baptized “Quartier de la création“, became home to the most powerful and dynamic tech and innovation community in provincial France. Over the last 10 years, nearly 2,000 digital companies emerged in, or located to, Nantes. In 2017 only, over 28,000 tech-related jobs were created.
