NGE joins forces with Le Carburateur to promote entrepreneurship.

February 14, 2024, Marseille - NGE, sponsor of the Sustainable Constructions and Infrastructures category for the third year running, has selected YOCA, a Marseille-based start-up offering site management software for construction professionals, as one of the winners of the 3rd edition of the "Du Carburant pour l'entrepreneuriat" 2023 competition, organized by Le Carburateur.

After sponsoring ABC Chanvre in 2021 and IntheAir in 2022, NGE is renewing its commitment to helping the region’s entrepreneurs develop to build a more sustainable world. It is also a way for NGE to source innovations with these start-ups with a vision to decarbonize its business and significantly reduce its greenhouse gas emissions.

YOCA, founded in August 2023 and this year’s winner in the Sustainable Construction and Infrastructure category, is developing site monitoring software that helps calculate the environmental footprint of HVAC-P professions (Heating – Ventilation – Air Conditioning – Plumbing). YOCA’s solution makes it possible to know the carbon footprint of products offered by suppliers, and thus to make a well-informed choice quickly. This is a real step forward for NGE’s Building activity, as it digitizes a practice that was previously carried out manually. NGE and YOCA will be studying how this automation can be applied to the Group’s other civil engineering activities.
