For us, it’s time to take stock, and it’s been a busy year!
Selecting 12 representative episodes is no easy task, because in reality we could put 12 more depending on the angle we choose:
The Altyor staff angle with the monthly welcome of new employees over breakfast, sessions with our sports coach, darts tournaments, table soccer games, our participation in the Foulées roses, afterworks, our little sister Tiloli’s birthday …
The Event angle with all our partners who support the hardware sector s2e2 webinars, round tables at the Sido trade show, Big de Bpifrance speaking engagements, interviews on France bleu …
The customer angle with the beautiful project launches, the confidence they give us, the stories of Men and encounters ✨
The Mision-Driven Company , between our associative commitments, the big steps of our construction or the workshops at home to think together about our new company
In short … it’s been a rewarding year, thanks to you, Altyormates, Customers, Partners!
“In 2024, I saw the commitment and passion of the Altyor teams to design products that are as innovative as ever, to industrialize products that are as efficient as ever, and to satisfy our customers with a commitment that is as strong as ever. All this with strong eco-design reflexes, a growing understanding of the impact of our company and the products we design and produce, products that are increasingly useful for the transition. Thank you all for this year!
Yanis Cottard, President of Altyor
2025, count on us, this promise of service will be renewed!”
Happy New Year 2025 to all!
Here’s a closer look at the 12 episodes selected for vidéo☝️
January saw our first internal meeting to define our operational objectives. Each month, a department was put in the spotlight, and the collective intelligence and hindsight of the other departments helped build our mission model. Well done to Thomas Gauthier, our mission manager, who got it right down to the last millimeter!
In February, we’ve chosen to talk to you about our 2023 CSR report, which reflects all our commitments and progress towards environmental and social transition. This will be our last CSR report. Don’t panic, it’s just that our next one will be our mission report!!!! The first one !!! We can’t wait to share it with you!
March saw the launch of our HARD DAYS TOUR a series of meetings in the 4 corners of France where hardware innovation players meet to discuss the keys to industrial success in a circular economy. There’s been Lyon, Aix en Provence, Grenoble and Paris. And we’re starting in 2025, with a date in Lille, so register now!
April saw the Demo Day of the Make it! academy, our funding gas pedal for hardware start-ups. A second class ⚡⚡ comprised start-ups RegenFab, Elio, Midipile and Sonaide.
In May, we remember VivaTech, a great opportunity to meet the hardware ecosystem . Another great event to remember is Sido in September, where we’ve been for 10 years and never been disappointed!
June was marked by a session held on our premises by Réseau étincelle ❤️. Some fifteen young people who had dropped out of school and the workplace attended with their trainers Karine Prigent and Sophie Goulliaud. For us, it was an opportunity for our employees to share their career paths and give concrete advice!
July saw the publication of our Carbon Footprint results . 22% is the figure we’re holding back! Such a reduction in our carbon footprint thanks in particular to our increasing use of recycled plastic in our customers’ products.
August. Altyor changes its face with a new logo and graphic identity (Thanks Outercraft!). Allied to our 30+ years of expertise in the industrialization of hardware products and our commitment to impact subjects, this is the new face of Altyor.
September 23 was our 1st Mission Committee, bringing together Mina Veltcheva (Unistellar), Olivier Voisin (Natta), Marie-Gabrielle Sorin, Sébastien Uscher, Jean-Marc Prunet, Jean-Pierre Goux, Christophe Dousset, Marion Valentin and Altyor executive committee members Thomas Gauthier, Julien Marichy, Yannis Brun and Yanis Cottard. An important step in the growth and development of our Mission Company .
A quieter October? Not at all! We welcomed twenty or so of our strategic suppliers to our premises to talk CSR. Yes! not to talk numbers or returns, but to raise their awareness of environmental and social issues and build a sustainable industry together .
November, in full swing, our remanufacturing unit in St Cyr en Val was preparing the new life of Bookinou e-readers , so that they would be ready at the foot of young children’s Christmas trees.
And finally, at the end of December, we finished on a high note with another Demo Day for promo 3, featuring start-ups Safehear, Sycon, Nobsolete, Centaurion, Jnius and Zenho.
Looking forward to 2025!
