Last June, ITrust celebrated the grand opening of its new offices, marking a major milestone for the company and the Occitanie region. The event, which took place on June 17, 2024, also marked the opening of the Iliad Group’s new cybersecurity hub, bringing together teams from ITrust, Free Pro, and Scaleway.
A Landmark Event
The grand opening of ITrust’s offices was a major event, bringing together influential figures from the technology sector, business partners, clients, and the company’s employees. The ceremony began with an inspiring speech by Jean-Nicolas Piotrowski, ITrust’s CEO and founder, who emphasized the importance of this new milestone for the company.
“Even though we’ve come a long way since our founding, this grand opening marks a new beginning. Our new offices are designed to foster innovation, collaboration, and excellence—our company’s core values,” said Mr. Piotrowski.
At the Heart of Enova, the City of Innovation
ITrust is setting up its new offices in the Enova district in Labège, just outside Toulouse. Enova is a unique project based on the “short innovation cycle”—that is, it brings together in a single district everything needed for new technology projects to get off the ground: from business incubators to startups, and from laboratories to companies. Researchers, students, and employees are thus brought together across 282 hectares. This synergy is expected to foster the region’s economic development. Within this district, a building dedicated exclusively to businesses and startups has been designed: DATA Valley.
ITrust’s offices are located in the heart of this digital village, which harmoniously combines urban landscape, biodiversity, sustainable transportation, and natural energy efficiency. Spread across 1,000 m² on the ground floor, ITrust’s offices currently house 75 employees. The site’s accessibility is one of its major advantages for employees. Close to public transportation, the ring road, and the highway, DATA Valley is also accessible by bike thanks to a high-quality bike path.
A Space Designed for Innovation
ITrust was founded in Occitanie. And it was in Occitanie that ITrust was to establish its new headquarters: an ultra-modern, eco-designed building that provides our teams with the best possible work environment to better meet our customers’ expectations, wherever they may be. This headquarters, which brings together the finest expertise in cybersecurity, is a cornerstone for the iliad Group in a world where data is an increasingly sensitive issue.
Our integration into the iliad Group over the past year has enabled us to sustain our growth and build on the unique expertise of our teams. In fact, over the past 12 months, more than 650 new small and micro-businesses have subscribed to the Cyber XPR Solution offered by Free Pro. For the past few weeks, the various ITrust teams—including those responsible for software development, the cyber AI lab, the Red Team experts, CERT, and the Main SOC—as well as the teams from Free Pro and Scaleway, have been working together on a single site, coordinating seamlessly and responding with maximum agility. This physical proximity is a major asset.
Future Outlook
With these new offices, ITrust is well-positioned to continue growing and innovating in the cybersecurity sector. The company plans to expand its workforce and launch new products in the coming months. This expansion is part of ITrust’s overall strategy to strengthen its presence in the European market and explore new international opportunities.
The grand opening of ITrust’s offices on June 17, 2024, marks the beginning of a new era for the company, which continues to distinguish itself through its commitment to innovation, cybersecurity, and the community. This new chapter promises significant advances in data protection and digital security—areas that are more critical than ever in our connected world.
