The start of 2019 also provided Enless with an opportunity to strengthen its connections within the IoT ecosystem. The company has joined the dynamic French Tech movement and has also become a member of the Smart Buildings Alliance, which represents all building-related trades and Smart City stakeholders.
French Tech, an ecosystem of French startups and players focused on new technologies, aims to create momentum and generate growth within its ecosystem by fostering connections among its members and collaborating with government institutions. On April 3, French Tech Bordeaux was named the Capital of French Tech, further reinforcing the momentum of the local ecosystem. “This ‘French Tech Capital’ designation reinforces our vision and our conviction that French Tech Bordeaux is built and developed first and foremost with and thanks to its dynamic ecosystem,” says Jérôme Leleu, president of French Tech Bordeaux.

The Smart Buildings Alliance founded in 2012, brings together nearly 250 organizations dedicated to the development of the smart building sector. Its members—manufacturers, service companies, engineering firms, architects, builders, developers, urban planners, and innovative startups—work to enhance the value of buildings by addressing key challenges such as digital technology, the environment, and sustainable development.
Some statistics on the IoT – Smart Building ecosystem:
- The Internet of Things for SmartBuilding serving the SmartCity will be worth nearly 216 billion euros in 2022.
- Nearly 25 billion connected devices will be in use by 2020!
