Clever Cloud is pleased to welcome you to La Cantine x La French Tech Nantes for a full day, as part of Nantes Digital Week and the Je choisis la French Tech program. The main hall hosts a showroom of local solutions, along with part of the talks, complemented by two conference rooms.

In practice, the goal is to show IT decision-makers that local solutions already exist and run in production today. It's also about showing that they can meet many technology needs today, without relying on the big American platforms. The local ecosystem produces them, but these solutions are often not well known enough to the organizations that could use them. Putting them in the spotlight is exactly what matters to us with Tech Alternatives Nantes.

The Tech Alternatives Nantes program

The day opens with a keynote, then continues with panel discussions, talks and case studies, with no sales pitches. Speakers come to talk about what they've built, not to sell it. For example, attendees will hear how electronic waste becomes a local resource, how AI is being industrialized in Europe, or how to respond to a cyberattack. The day wraps up with a closing address, followed by a networking session.

Also, here are the fourteen local organizations co-organizing the event: ADN Ouest, AlphaEdge, Clever Cloud, CRISP, ETIX, Free Pro, French Tech Nantes x La Cantine, ici_lundi, iTrust, Make IT Safe, Modixia, Octopize, Swiftask and Tranquil IT. Clever Cloud and La Cantine x La French Tech Nantes handle the overall coordination.
