Nice Meridia: a strategic choice
The establishment of Aktisea in Nice Meridia, an urban technology hub at the heart of Nice Ecovallée, is a strategic choice. This district, at the center of innovation, offers a dynamic setting to foster growth and innovation. The new offices symbolize not only improved infrastructure for Aktisea’s employees but also a strengthened foothold in a regional ecosystem conducive to economic development.
A site visit, organized after the ceremony, allowed participants to discover the ambitions behind the new premises and to discuss Aktisea’s future prospects.
An inclusive and innovative commitment
Since its creation in 2012 in Nice, Aktisea has established itself as a key player in professional inclusion in France. With more than 300 companies supported and a team composed of 70% employees with disabilities, the company demonstrates that disability and performance can go hand in hand.
The “Mon Référent Handicap” initiative, launched at the end of 2023, is part of this mission. It supports SMEs in implementing inclusive policies through a turnkey platform and awareness workshops.
