About

The Greater Paris Metropolis (MGP) is a French inter-municipal structure created in 2016 to coordinate planning, economic development and ecological transition within the Paris region. It encompasses Paris and 130 neighboring municipalities, representing nearly 7 million inhabitants. 

The Greater Paris Metropolis has launched a strategic program to deploy ethical and sustainable AI in public policy. The initiative focuses on two main goals:

  • Accelerate AI adoption in local governments and public services.

  • Build a dynamic, internationally recognized urban AI ecosystem.

To implement this, we created the “ApproprIAtion Métropolitaine” program — a free, three-phase initiative for municipalities and EPTs:

  1. Training: Build AI literacy and identify local use cases.

  2. Experimentation: Fund and support pilot AI projects.

  3. Scaling: Expand successful solutions across the metropolitan area.

Current tracks include:

  • IA ECOPILOT (energy efficiency in public buildings – 60 cities)

  • IA Delivery Zones (urban logistics – 11 cities)

  • IA-BTP Match (construction material reuse – 3 EPTs)

  • IA Internal Admin (process optimization – 23 cities)

Upcoming in 2025: new tracks on city center attractiveness, land use, and noise pollution.

We are actively seeking innovative startups to co-develop and scale impactful AI solutions for urban challenges.
