Normandie Web Xperts

What Normandie Web Xperts does

Normandie Web Xperts (NWX) is a French non-profit association (loi 1901), founded around 2011 and headquartered at Seine Innopolis in Le Petit-Quevilly with a second office at Forum digital in Colombelles. The organization functions as a regional digital cluster for Normandy, federating digital companies, freelancers, public institutions, and educational bodies around a portfolio of services and events. Core offerings include AI awareness and training ('Sensibilisation à l'IA en entreprise'), the annual NWX Festival (10th edition in 2024, 400+ attendees), hackathons (Hack Ton Cab', Habit'IA), the Caravane du Numérique mobile outreach program (in partnership with Orange), and a coworking and meeting space (Cantine numérique NWX). NWX also coordinates the We Are Normandy collective at VivaTech, having accompanied 65 companies over four editions, and runs responsible digital initiatives such as Digital Clean Up Days and electronic-waste collection via WeeeCycling.

The association operates on a subscription-recurring membership revenue model complemented by public-sector co-financing from Région Normandie, ADNormandie, FEDER, and metropolitan partners, plus event and training income. Its go-to-market is community-led and event-driven: 44 events organized per year and 93+ partner events covered create ongoing member acquisition touchpoints, supported by Eventozor, a Cosoft member intranet, LinkedIn/YouTube/Instagram channels, and a monthly newsletter. Membership stood at 133 active companies in 2024, with the broader ecosystem under the merged Normandie Numérique structure now claiming 120 digital solution providers, 19 public/private clients, 15 higher education institutions, and 10 ecosystem actors.

On October 16, 2025, NWX and Campus Normandie Cyber merged — approved unanimously at extraordinary general assemblies — to form Normandie Numérique, officially inaugurated November 24, 2025, and led by three co-presidents (Christophe Rosenberger, Philippe Hedde, and Marc Maouche). The merged entity extends the original digital-animation mission into cybersecurity (CSIRT Normandie Cyber in partnership with ANSSI) and responsible AI (IA Responsable charter), with the 2025 Ambassadeur IA designation under OSEZ l'IA reinforcing its role as a regional AI awareness leader. NWX holds the Numérique Responsable certification (INR), Label Numérique Responsable niveau 2, and the Campus Cyber Territorial label.

Scale indicators11 records

Recent moves8 records

Expansion highlights7 records

Direct peers

• NUMA: Paris-headquartered innovation hub running accelerators, corporate AI workshops, and community events. Comparable to NWX's AI sensibilisation services, community events, and corporate training offerings.
• Cap Digital: Paris/Île-de-France digital cluster federating companies, research labs, and institutions around digital transformation. Most direct analogue to NWX's regional digital cluster model, operating at greater scale in a larger region.
• La French Tech: National movement coordinating French Tech communities (including French Tech Normandie Rouen and French Tech Normandie Caen, both NWX partners). Comparable as the meta-ecosystem builder that NWX participates in through the We Are Normandy collective.
• Systematic Paris-Region: Deep-tech competitiveness cluster serving the Paris region with a similar pillar-of-expertise approach (security, AI, digital transformation). Highly comparable in mission, funding model (public-private), and member ecosystem structure.
• Euratechnologies: Lille-based tech campus and cluster combining coworking, startup acceleration, corporate partnerships, and events. Closely matches NWX's combination of coworking (Cantine numérique), events (NWX Festival), and corporate/regional partner ecosystem.

Others

• Bpifrance: French public investment bank funding innovation and SME digitalization. Not a direct competitor but an ecosystem actor whose programs (Le Hub, Bpifrance Le Lab) overlap with NWX's digital transformation and AI training missions.
• ADNormandie: Regional economic development agency and core NWX institutional partner. Adjacent rather than competitive: jointly supports digital ecosystem initiatives in Normandy and operates the Normandie Cyber incident response page that NWX co-promotes.

Broad incumbents

• Station F: Largest startup campus globally, offering a broader mix of programs, corporate partners, and international visibility. Operates an analogous community-building model to NWX but at massively greater scale and a national/international footprint.
