Shared innovation is all about being open, listening and sharing
How we act
Shared innovation forms part of every phase of a project – before, during and after. We are open and agile enough to embrace new forms of innovation. Our approach affects all those involved in our ecosystem and aims to give them a role to play, bring them closer and get them working together. By coming into contact with different viewpoints and ideas, we create and spread innovation… not only around our own projects, but also throughout our sector!

2018, a year marked by innovations, partnerships and acquisitions.
We see innovation as a
collective and shared state of mind.
In 2018, the men and women of Bouygues Construction showed just that, throughout the world, whether upstream or downstream of the construction process itself. We do it for the good of customers, users and their environment.Our businesses and our practices are increasingly becoming digitised, which encourages innovation at every level. We have also created developmental
partnerships and strengthened our capabilities in the key businesses of Energy and Services through two major acquisitions.
Innovation is a strategic driver running through all our actions. By innovating, we are working to make our regions and communities
sustainable, now more than ever.
