Our local anchoring policy
contribute to sovereignty
Economic and digital sovereignty are two major issues to which Luminess is very attached.
French ETI, born in Mayenne, Luminess is committed to bringing its ecosystem to life and thus contributes to economic sovereignty by boosting the local economy through numerous partnerships, and by helping to create jobs in the areas where we are established Mayenne, Lens et Rennes.
A major digital player, ETI Française, we are engaged in a process of digital sovereignty. So, our data is stored in France either in our data centers located at Mayenne and Laval, either in Outscale's SecNumCloud environment.
Bringing our local roots to life in France
Founded in 1903 in Mayenne, Luminess (formerly Jouve) is present on several sites in France, between Mayenne, Lens, Rennes et Paris. This anchoring is an asset for the Group. This is why we are committed to bringing our local ecosystem to life, and strengthen, in particular through partnerships.

After a presentation of Luminess and the site by the Site Manager and an explanation of our BPO and Industrialization activities, the group was able to discover the workshops. The idea was to develop an initial approach to digital professions for people who don't yet have an idea of what they want to do.
