Welcome to EIT Digital Rennes
EIT Digital Rennes
EIT Digital is a leading European open
innovation organization. Its mission is to
foster digital technology innovation and
entrepreneurial talent for economic growth
and quality of life in Europe.
EIT Digital is a key player on the Rennes
regional scene. It is integrated within major
national and regional initiatives to promote
French entrepreneurship and complements
major national strategic educational
investments in the area of computer
science in Brittany.
The EIT Digital partners in Rennes to date
are: University of Rennes 1, IRISA, INRIA,
Telecom Bretagne (Institut Mines Telecom),
the competitiveness cluster Images &
Réseaux, Orange, Thales, Alcatel-Lucent, La
fondation Rennes 1 and Rennes Métropole.
Ideally located in the Rennes-Atalante
science park, EIT Digital Rennes is hosted
by ISTIC, the education and research
department in computer science and
technical engineering from Rennes 1
University. The colocation centre provides
an office, an open-space and a meeting
room in a revamped area.
The science park is closely linked to the
European ICT community and is located
near major industrial corporations, 300
SMEs and the two main ICT labs in the
West of France: IRISA and Inria. Hence it is
a highly appreciated and valued location for
networking, opened to all players from the
ICT innovation ecosystem in Rennes.
Rennes, the capital of Brittany (West
of France), is a leading education and
high-tech R&D center of global renown.
Recent history of Rennes includes many
crucial advances in terms of invention
and development of world standards in
ICT: ATM, MP3, JPEG, OFDM, Turbo Codes,
MPEG4, etc.
With over 60,000 students out of a
population of 225 000, the city is also
arguably one of France’s liveliest and
student-friendly location.
