What GRAFIE does

GRAFIE (Groupement Régional des Acteurs Franciliens de l'Insertion par l'Economique) is a non-profit regional inter-network organization headquartered in Montreuil, France, that coordinates 560 Structures d'Insertion par l'Activité Économique (SIAE) across all 8 departments of Île-de-France. SIAE encompass social-integration enterprises including ACI, AI, EI, ETTI, and Régies de Quartier, collectively supporting 32,000 employees in 2023 with a 55% positive-exit rate. GRAFIE's portfolio of services includes economic-development support for SIAE, professionalization training, a digital toolbox (Boîte à outils numériques IAE), the Annuaire des SIAE Franciliennes, an interactive cartography of sponsorship-eligible projects, the Guichet francilien for responsible-purchasing intermediation, and the annual JIAE event. The organization also brokers relationships between SIAE, public/private buyers (donneurs d'ordre), and corporate/foundation mécènes.

The organization operates on a non-commercial funding model rather than a SaaS or product platform. Core funding flows from the Île-de-France region and DRIEETS, with operational and program support from departmental councils, France Travail, FAS IDF, and departmental IAE networks. GTM is community-led: GRAFIE convenes, professionalizes, and advocates for its members rather than selling a discrete product. No proprietary technology stack, AI capabilities, or venture-style funding have been disclosed. The cited €96 million refers to public-procurement revenue generated by member SIAE, not GRAFIE's own revenue, which is not publicly disclosed.
