4.5.3.2 Encouraging entrepreneurship and innovation Entrepreneurship is a fulcrum for regional economic diversification and innovation.
objective is to promote the emergence of a hybrid ecosystem with high added value in the region, to become a central place for economic development and allow the creation of more than a hundred jobs. In addition, work is underway to identify the Group’s innovation needs, to bring these themes to the attention of start-ups in the areas of influence of our platforms, in order to identify common growth potential. Lastly, the club of winners of the RDV de l’Entrepreneuriat awards co-organized with the Orly International association was created and has enabled the emergence of a community of young companies with a promising future for regional economic development. The 9 th RDV de l’Entrepreneuriat at the end of November mobilized 60 partners and welcomed 200 visitors. This annual event aims to provide concrete solutions to local entrepreneurs, regardless of their level of maturity, by promoting business creation and takeover opportunities as well as the networks of players who support project leaders. Through the creation of the Citizen Engagement Department in 2019, we wanted to send a strong signal to employees, namely that commitment in all its forms has its place in a high performance company that is mindful of its impact on society. Groupe ADP wants to go further, by developing an employee engagement strategy until 2025: thus the Group has proposed a strategic performance objective (KPI) on employee engagement, at the rate of an evolution of 500 days per year until 2025. Through this strong gesture, we wanted to recognize commitment as a practice anchored in the Company and thus guarantee its sustainability. Aware of the challenge of developing skills-based sponsorship, Groupe ADP has also decided to propose to employee representative bodies to include the volume of days of commitment made by employees in the incentive scheme. The objective is to reward employees who are known to be committed. This is now the case in the new profit-sharing agreement signed in the summer of 2022. In line with this agreement, Groupe ADP also organized for the first time the “Commitment Month” which took place in November 2022 with collective actions proposed to employees around environmental, educational, and professional integration issues: nearly 200 employees are committed to this framework. 4.5.4.2 A strategy that is evolving and strengthening but based on solid fundamentals Groupe ADP’s civic commitment is also embodied in the actions carried out by its Corporate Foundation. Since 2015, the Groupe ADP Corporate Foundation has supported more than 50 projects in the field of education and youth in order to prevent and fight against school dropout and illiteracy.
The installation of business incubators at the Paris-Charles de Gaulle and Paris-Orly airports for project leaders, young companies and growth companies, enables Groupe ADP to promote and participate in the development of entrepreneurship, and to promote the emergence of business projects. The Hubstart Center incubator on the Paris-CDG platform for more than twenty years, to support and promote entrepreneurship among local populations, is a good example of this. This same spirit of regional development has also made it possible to open a new incubator on the Paris-Orly platform since this summer, allowing the largest airport regions in the north and south of Paris to have a direct link with the economic development of our regions. The purpose of these incubators is to help managers to perpetuate their company in the first years of activity, in the project start-up phase or in the business growth phase. The Our territories are at the heart of Groupe ADP’s commitment strategy, in conjunction with local associations and for the benefit of populations. The Citizen Engagement Department, which brings together the Corporate Foundation and all of the Group’s philanthropic actions, supports numerous projects on a variety of themes, always for the benefit of local populations and stakeholders. By “local”, we mean in the vicinity of the airport platforms that we operate. Among the means of local action, Groupe ADP gives the opportunity to all employees who wish to have a positive impact on the Company and the regions where it operates. 4.5.4.1 A key player in commitment: employees Groupe ADP has developed many commitment programs: tutoring young people and employees, solidarity leave, sponsorship of senior skills, rounding of salary, solidarity team building, civic missions, etc. All these programs are offered on the digital citizen engagement platform, a tool set up in 2021 and easily accessible from the home page of the Company’s intranet site. Employees need to give meaning to their jobs on a daily basis and the Company has a duty to engage with its regions and civil society. Given three work days per year, they must be able to find the commitment that suits them, regardless of their available time, their professional constraints, their aspirations, and thus develop their skills for the benefit of the Company and their profession. They thus contribute to the general interest and have a positive and direct impact on non-profit organizations, and consequently on vulnerable populations near our platforms. Skills-based sponsorship consists of providing professional expertise and know-how, during working hours, to non-profit partners who express a need for it. This approach contributes to the attraction and development of the Company’s talents, while echoing the transformation of society, hit by the Covid crisis.
