It is a node where companies from aeronautics, cybersecurity, high-tech industry are concentrated... To the west of Paris, the urban community of Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines today constitutes one of the reactors of innovation in Île-de-France.

This highlights an entire local ecosystem based on tech, a sector in high tension that faces a shortage of qualified candidates.
