About
inno³ is an independent consulting firm specialized in open models acting at the crossroads of private (industrial and social economy), public (administrations and communities) and community actors.
Intimately convinced of the economic and social virtues of a collaborative and sustainable system, we rely on a multidisciplinary team that is actively involved in favor of a greater democratization of open and collaborative models.
Who are we?
We are a team of passionate people combining complementary expertise in favor of a greater democratization of open and collaborative models.
Based on more than ten years of experience with companies and public organizations, our ambition is to offer high value-added services that allow us to address the issues raised by open models in a sustainable manner.
We intervene in multiple sectors, collaborating with specialists in different fields to enable them to fully benefit from the opportunities that digital technology opens up as new resources produced or received (Open Source, Open Data and Open Hardware) as well as opportunities for systemic approaches (Open Innovation, Open Science and Digital Commons).
Addressing collaboration from a licensing (and therefore rights management), product (project management) and contribution optimization (human management) point of view, we intervene in the form of change management, awareness and training of managers and employees.

…-2010
The firm’s roots
The years 2000-2010 represent the first concrete actions and experiences carried out by our consultants in the Open Source and Open Data communities. This period was notably reflected by the foundation of the Veni, Vidi, Libri Association in 2006 (popularization and dissemination of knowledge about free licenses).
These years also saw the first experiments with the creation of a series of training modules dedicated to the legal and community aspects of Open Source, and the launch of the first Legal Center for Open Source.
