Where Government gets agile
For nearly 10 years, the French government has been developing a new way of building digital public services, which truly improve the lives of citizens, businesses, and public agents. That’s the mission of State Startups.
Investigate and build
Driven by public agents and digital experts, these teams move fast: they field-test, listen to users, and avoid the red tape.
Over 250 State Startups have already been launched to create simpler, more efficient public services.
Accelerate
Since 2015, more than 850 public agents took part to these projects, discovering agile & product methods.
Sustain
Some State Startups have scaled up and have become part of their users' daily lives, like Pix, DossierFacile, PassCulture, SignalConso, or even JeVeuxAider.
Digital sovereignty
Born and Bred in France
In 2024, France strengthened its digital independence with a clear objective: significantly improving control over its information systems.
This ambition took shape with the deployment of a trusted cloud for public administrations: a secure infrastructure designed to host sensitive data within a clear, controlled, and EU-compliant framework.
Sovereignty also means having your own tools.
With La Suite Numérique, developed in partnership with Germany and the Netherlands, public agents can now collaborate using European-designed tools that are open-source, secure, and privacy-friendly.
Sovereignty also means resilience.
France has reinforced its cybersecurity capabilities by modernizing its interministerial network, whose robustness was successfully tested during the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, and by deploying cyber incident response centers inside all ministries.
Artificial intelligence
It's not fashionable, it's functional
Artificial intelligence is no longer a promise, it is already transforming public action. The French State uses AI as a tool for simplification, efficiency, and sovereignty. This ambition has come to life through tangible products such as Panoramax.
This tool uses panoramic street-level images to automatically detect traffic signs and urban furniture. Thanks to AI, this data enhances public maps and helps improve route calculations, used daily by citizens through navigation apps.
In 2024, around ten AI-based products emerged through the ALLiaNCE incubator.
The French State has now entered a phase of accelerated development of custom, agile, and policy-aligned AI solutions.
