The 7th Gilles GODARD Intake : what does it mean ?

VINCI is a global player in the concessions and contracting business, employing nearly 195,000 people in some 100 countries.

VINCI’s mission is to design, finance, build and manage infrastructure and equipment that contribute to improve the daily life and mobility of everyone.

Because its vision of success is global and goes beyond its economic results, VINCI is committed to the environmental, social and societal performance of its activities.
Listening and dialogue with all stakeholders is a necessary condition for the exercise of our business.

VINCI’s ambition is to create long-term value for its customers, shareholders, employees, partners and society in general.

In a context marked by many challenges: energy transition, digital revolution, acceleration of innovation cycles, Vinci launched Leonard, a new structure dedicated to innovation and foresight, to invent the future of our business lines.

Leonard’s primary mission is to keep an eye on trends that are emerging in our businesses and markets. We regularly gather foresight groups to identify long-term issues and in particular on the following topics:
– the autonomous vehicle and its impact on the construction and operation of infrastructures,
– the resilience of cities and infrastructures in the face of climate events,
– the digitization of infrastructures and buildings,
– and the new forms of work and their impact on our managerial model.

There are opportunities for change in the Group’s businesses and organization, as well as new growth drivers.

Vinci explores responses to the deep transformations of our businesses by encouraging synergies and transversality within a highly decentralized and geographically extensive organization.

Innovation contributes to the progress of the Group’s businesses on a daily basis, in all areas of their business: the performance of technical solutions and offers deployed for their customers, but above all the safety of the teams, the efficiency of the production processes, or the environmental and social responsibility of the VINCI Group.
