Spotlight on Rectoverso Architectes’ Face Cachée project in CFNews Immo. The rehabilitated office building now houses the new Aptiskills headquarters.
Located rue Edouard Vaillant in Levallois-Perret, the 2,000 sqm program incorporates the codes of the city’s tertiary architecture through its lacquered aluminium facade. Inside, the building offers six different atmospheres, one per floor.
Unveiled last May by the government, the impact.gouv platform allows companies to play the game of transparency by publishing their environmental, social and good governance (ESG) data.
Caroline Neyron, Managing Director of Mouvement Impact France, deplores the lack of clarity and precise objectives of this tool.
For her, the first problem lies in the use of the word “impact” which relates to a high level of commitment from companies, while this tool does not have the criteria of impact. Indeed, it allows to reveal the commitments in terms of corporate social responsibility (CSR), which are consistent simply to reduce the negative effects of a company’s activity. Fuzzy notions that require in-depth work in order to offer a better understanding to avoid green and social washing.
Furthermore, the optional nature of this platform makes it insufficient. A mandatory tool, in which, for each indicator, an objective and a deadline are set and a score given, is essential for the ecological and social transition of companies.
Located in the heart of the Flaine resort, the hotel has been completely refurbished to make its way for a 4-star establishment with 118 rooms and apartments.

An investment that fits perfectly with EXTENDAM’s strategy supporting the development of responsible and experiential hotels of tomorrow.
Designed in 2006, the Ginko eco-district is laying its last stone in Bordeaux. On 32 hectare, Ginko is a succession of heterogeneous blocks with collective and individual housing, silo parking lots with shared hanging gardens and shops on the ground floor.
This eco-district will be extended with the Noème operation, reproducing the qualities of its predecessor by improving them. Composed of nine blocks, including one block entrusted to Maud Caubet Architects, the work will begin in November.
At 57 years old, Jean-Marc Palhon drives the investment company EXTENDAM and owns a portfolio of 259 establishments in France and Europe. Julie Le Bolzer went to meet him for Les Echos, resulting to a portrait faithful to the convictions of this man of numbers and words.
Born in the South of France and then moved to Paris, Jean-Marc Palhon defines himself as a “man of mission”. He is committed to weaving the future of the hotel industry, in particular by adapting its hotels to new uses and current challenges, whether they are environmental or social.
Today, groups of employees and managers committed to ecological and social transition are meeting at the COP26 to transform businesses.
For the occasion, Mouvement Impact France, carrying the voices of 7,500 leaders and entrepreneurs committed to ecological and social transition, has joined forces with Les Collectifs, a network of employee collectives mobilized for ecology.
“The leaders have the strategic vision, the employees have the vision of the field. We must encourage them to bring it up” explains Eva Sadoun, chairwoman of Mouvement Impact France.

While the social and ecological emergency calls for a change in the business model, Mouvement Impact France brings together a community of pioneers who have demonstrated that another model was possible and that businesses could bind growth, social impact, ecological impact, sharing value and power sharing.

Therefore, Mouvement Impact France has a dual entrepreneurial and political project, which it intends to place in a European and international perspective.
