It relies on reliable infrastructure that fosters the development of value-creating technologies and services. These technologies are being deployed with a low-carbon, maximum solar energy concept and are supported through annual investments of more than one billion euros.

The millions of opportunities available to young people, women and entrepreneurs through our free inclusion initiatives are also seeds of change. They include digital literacy, training in new jobs to reduce unemployment, and assistance in finding a job, starting or developing a startup or income-generating activity. This is reflected in the more than one million beneficiaries of the Orange Digital Center program, the 600,000 students in digital schools and the thousands of women supported by the Orange Foundation’s Digital Centers each year.
