Following the success of Babel Belleville, EXTENDAM and MyHotels Group open a new address in Lille. The two partners acquire, in property and funds, two adjoining hotels (Hôtel de l’Univers and Hôtel des Reignaux, previously under the Première Classe and Kyriad brands) to renovate and restructure them.
Located between Lille Europe station and the city center, the two assets have a prime location in the heart of the Flanders Capital. Once the two establishments are combined, the 71-room hotel will be intended for a business or leisure, international or domestic customers. Babel is committed to highlight the city and its inhabitants. It will thus call upon local artisans as well as initiate a dialogue with the Lille non-profit fabric to ensure authenticity, cultural influence, and meet the specific needs of the territory!
A look at the transformative impact of citizen investment in the social economy within communities. For Le Progrès, Olivier Delahaye highlights initiatives such as Énergie Partagée, which collects citizen savings to support renewable energy projects. A concrete way to give meaning to one’s savings while contributing to building a fairer and more ecological world.

“Promoting the inclusion and utility of retirees as actors in a changing world, creators of intergenerational connections and promoters of economic, social, and solidarity activities at the local level” – this is the mission of Thank You Max. The Thank You Max app connects people in need of a service with “Max” from their neighbourhood, a friendly and dynamic retiree living nearby who enjoys helping their neighbours.
The goal: to develop a new concept of collaborative and sustainable neighbourhood life, led by retirees from the neighbourhood, while developing the creation of economic, social, and solidarity activities!
Congratulations on this great initiative.
