FOUNDING PARTNERS
Founding partners joined the Cité du design in November 2006 so as to assist it with its activities and expertise, as well as starting up joint progressive action in research, innovation and economic development through design.
The Cité du designs founding partners are :
- national/international companies such as EDF, La Poste and Orange;
- major regional companies such as Cellux and Weiss;
- Saint-Étienne/Montbrison Chamber of Commerce, Industry and Services through all the industry represented by it.
They all joined the Cité du design in its process of creation, convinced that design was a major innovation direction at the heart of the economic sector, hoping to act in their own field of activity as well as for a dynamic of exchange.
Their different and complementary skills, the diversity in sizes and action circles, their specific challenges and acknowledged expertise are embodying all dimensions borne by the Cité du design.
Their support and commitment raises them to the level of key organisers of the 2010 Saint-Étienne International Design Biennial.
Some partnerships are being finalized. All business partners will be announced in September.
