The 2 challenges for GenAI : - Deploy to production at scale - Find the right problem to address In this keynote introduction, my colleagues Thibaud Vienne and Laurène Thénoz (Vol-Monnot), Lead Data Scientist and Data Product Manager at Hymaïa deep dive into those two challenges. Key takeaways: - LLMs are not the challenge, it's all that comes around that is hard to handle - Software and Product Management best practices are more than ever needed to face those challenges Find the replay of the keynote here: https://lnkd.in/e-SayBqx

📣 Circular Economy minister job posting 🔔 🇨🇵 The French government is actively recruiting ! As the new prime minister quickly settles in and works 24/7 on a coalition government, a new key role is being considered, that of Circular Economy Minister!! Well....no, not yet, the above is a "slight" exageration of the reality. Still, the French Circular Economy actors are making a coherent pledge for this to happen asap. - create decent and meaningful local jobs - improve businesses AND local territories resilience - build on a solid Circular Economy ecosystem and regulatory framework (we do love regs. here...:)) What's not to like for a politician? 🔍 You can find the actual, real, authentic pledge in Le Monde newspaper here: https://lnkd.in/eyX9Tknp #Ministredeleconomiecirculaire EC2027 - Un Quinquennat pour l'Economie Circulaire !

🏥 CHU de Nantes, Europe’s largest hospital construction project, massively benefited from a new digital site monitoring solution. How? They focused on driving these 4 outcomes: 👉 Harmonising all methods used for site monitoring 👉 Consolidating all information and data into one solution 👉 Improving of the traceability and quality of the work on site 👉 Facilitating communication between all stakeholders from 15 companies With these objectives, our partners Equans Digital leveraged our Thinkproject Document & Communication Management solution to provide the project with these key capabilities: 💡 Automated reports and monitoring, identifying and forwarding over 370 reserves from the construction site to the relevant stakeholders, ensuring nothing is missed. 💡 Integration of 48 essential standard forms used on site to support collection and back-office processing of control documents, observations, auditing, safety and security, enhancing operational efficiency. 💡 2D & 3D integration: Seamless access and visualisation of recorded data from any location, including from mobile. Quickly, the entire construction project benefited from: ✅ Centralisation and speedy access to digitised technical information on the project ✅ Rapid processing of reservations ✅ Time saved in the execution and monitoring of the work on site The bottom line: A project of this scale has a hive of activity surrounding it, and without a single source of truth in place, the risk of delay, rework and soaring costs can quickly become a reality. 🤝 COLLABORATION IS KEY. Without clear communication between project participants, costs can quickly soar, and valuable time is wasted. Worse still, quality and safety can decline which could lead to effects beyond the bottom line. 💡 DIGITALISATION IS THE ANSWER. With all project parties working from a single source of truth and real-time updates from on-site to site office, a clear picture of ongoing work is mapped out. Streamlined, automated document management is here to transform your complex built asset portfolio.

Let me tell you what Les Echos, one of the most important business journals in France, is NOT saying (yet!): 1/ We need EUR 800 billion in investments per year (5% of UE's budget) just to keep the pace with USA and Chin 2/ The amount is twice the Marshal plan, because the problems now are twice compared to after WW2, if you can imagine this 3/ The report highlights the urgent need for common coordination in all aspects, from energy to financing. This is totally against Germany's business model as a country. We'll see if Italy and France we'll succeed in pushing this plan. https://lnkd.in/dPAXE_fu

Thank you to Frank Kumli for sharing this article by Ronald Klingebiel and Lucas Böttcher published in the Harvard Business Review. This article provides an interesting and comprehensive analysis of the various ways to select from the range of projects presented to a company those that will be retained. Beyond projects, it is worth noting that this selection process applies in the same way to each of our decisions, even if this is not always (or very rarely) the case. This review is interesting. It starts from the observation that too often, this choice is made based on the estimation of the projects' chances of success, leading to incremental progress. It concludes that the most efficient method is a simple form of "ranking" where each member of the decision committee positions each project according to their preferred order. This is simple and, according to the study, the most likely to select the projects that will prove most beneficial for the company. However, I am surprised that in none of the cases considered by this study is there a reference to the company's strategy and therefore no mention of the contribution of the analyzed project to the said strategy. In this regard, I can only mention the approach and tools such as those developed by Qibud and Gilles Ruffieux, which "magnetize" each decision, action, and actor towards the implementation of the strategy, making each one of them a contributor to this strategy. Best regards, Louis.

Sustainable Business Funding in France: Grants and Loans 💵 We have prepared a list of grants available in France that support small and medium businesses on their green journey. 🌳 ADEME Grants The French Agency for Ecological Transition (ADEME) is an organization that supports environmental transition and is owned by the French government.  ADEME has numerous initiatives, including the “Circular Economy and Waste” program. This program might be interesting to used device businesses as it aims to optimize resources and limit waste. It also supports various companies, including small local ones, on their green journey. 🌳 NRRP Grants The French Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP) is a major strategy developed in 2020 to address issues caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The plan distributes the budget into 73 streams, with a total funding of €40.3 billion. Used device businesses might benefit from the “Digital transition” initiative. It supports small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in implementing digital technologies. €8.7 billion, or 21.6% of the plan, will be spent on this initiative. 🌳 ERDF Grants The European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) is an international organization supporting SMEs in transitioning to a greener, more inclusive, and more efficient future.  The conditions of programs depend on the region. For example, in Île-de-France, ERDF invests €92 million in digitalization and SME development and €85 million in ecological transition and support for the circular economy. 🌳 France Num Grants  France Num helps SMEs, and very small enterprises (VSEs) digitalize. Regarding financial support, France Num provides subsidies that can be spent on purchasing innovative digital equipment. Grant requirements include co-financing from the company: France Num finances 50% of the purchase. Additionally, the project should last at least two years. 🌳 JTF Grants  The Just Transition Fund (JTF) was created by the European Union to help businesses transition to a climate-neutral economy. It provides help in various regions across Europe that depend most on fossil fuels.  JTF assists companies financially in achieving carbon neutrality. Several types of funding are available, such as non-repayable grants and co-financing. The program’s overall budget is €19.2 billion for 2021-2027. You can find the list of sustainable loans in France on our website: https://lnkd.in/dz9GfTdA #NSYSGroup #Sustainability #France

Has P&V committed to pay for energy efficiency measures for all buildings in which they have leaseback contracts? P&V doesn’t own physical assets. They own leaseback (rental) contracts. Private owners own the properties. The properties are located in Copropriétés. Copropriétés are run by a syndic and any spending decision is taken by owners through votes at an AGM. Contracts need to be subject to competitive tenders, by law. How is it possible for P&V who doesn’t own the assets/properties to commit to the energy efficiency of buildings they don’t own? I am all for energy efficiency measures and we have already acted in the building I participate to the management of, by installing building automation systems. Just curious how a third party can commit to assets they don’t own. The only conclusion possible seems to be that P&V is paying for it all….This would be great news for owners who have been waiting for P&V’s investment in their buildings for a long time. It would obviously still need to be approved at AGMs but this would be positive news indeed, as one can only imagine this to be a particularly large investment. #leaseback #propertyinvestment #bailcommercial #immobilier #energyefficiency #ademe

Ranging is one of those topics that take a big share of product marketing voice. Here by some principles I always remind myself when starting the exercice : 👉 People buy a product, not a range => What product is worth heroing ? 👉 One product = One need => Avoid redundancy in your portfolio. It creates complexity, confusion and cost. 👉 Good / Better / Best is a proven and tested principle that can help structure range navigation in a readable way. If you need input to build a range, don’t hesitate to reach out. #product #productmarketing #PMM #marketing #ranging
