French Tech Laval: a driver of innovation and local economic growth
Technological innovation does not happen in isolation. It thrives on exchanges, synergies, and collective momentum, fostering the emergence of new ideas and the development of innovative businesses.
With this in mind, Shortways is actively involved in La French Tech Laval, a national label that brings together innovative companies from a given region to promote and accelerate the adoption of digital technologies.
Through this initiative, we are part of a dynamic local ecosystem, where startups, SMEs, and large companies collaborate to develop high-performance technological solutions and strengthen the local economy.
