A sponsorship partnership agreement between UTC, mc2i and UTC’s Foundation for Innovation

mc2i is a key play­er in dig­i­tal trans­for­ma­tion, a facil­i­ta­tor of voca­tions and a trust­ed part­ner for stu­dents and edu­ca­tion­al estab­lish­ments. Com­mit­ted to stu­dents, mc2i sup­ports them in defin­ing and build­ing their pro­fes­sion­al project by offer­ing them priv­i­leged access to its exper­tise and con­crete feed­back. This part­ner has joined the UTC Foun­da­tion for Inno­va­tion as a sponsor.

Found­ed in 1989, mc2i is a dig­i­tal trans­for­ma­tion con­sul­tant agency with offices in Paris, Lille, Lyon, Nantes and Brus­sels. It sup­ports major accounts in the man­age­ment of large-scale projects, draw­ing on sec­toral, func­tion­al, method­olog­i­cal and tech­no­log­i­cal exper­tise. Its con­sul­tants work in both the pri­vate and pub­lic sec­tors, pro­vid­ing solu­tions tai­lored to the strate­gic and oper­a­tional chal­lenges of each organ­i­sa­tion. Work­ing in part­ner­ship with schools, the firm con­tributes to their devel­op­ment and encour­ages young tal­ent­ed peo­ple to devel­op their per­son­al skills. As a com­mit­ted com­pa­ny, mc2i sup­ports the UTC part­ner­ship foun­da­tion through var­i­ous val­ues such as inno­va­tion and excel­lence, ethics and respon­si­bil­i­ty in order to pro­mote respon­si­ble engi­neer­ing that respects the envi­ron­ment and soci­etal issues. mc2i sup­ports the UTC Foun­da­tion for Inno­va­tion to encour­age exchanges between the acad­e­my and indus­try to enhance mutu­al skills, but also for the com­mit­ment to a sus­tain­able world and to encour­age employ­ees to become capa­ble of evolv­ing in a con­stant­ly chang­ing envi­ron­ment’, explains Loren­zo Berto­la, Direc­tor of the Bank­ing, Finance & Insur­ance divi­sion at mc2i, since 2025 also Deputy Man­ag­ing Direc­tor in charge of the trans­for­ma­tion of mc2i for sev­er­al years to become a more respon­si­ble dig­i­tal world.

Contributing to the UTC Chair of Social Openness and Innovation

This com­mit­ment became a real­i­ty in 2023 with the award of the Numérique respon­s­able lev­el 2 label, grant­ed by the Insti­tut du numérique respon­s­able and the Lucie agency. ‘This recog­ni­tion encour­aged us to go even fur­ther in struc­tur­ing our CSR (cor­po­rate social respon­si­bil­i­ty) pol­i­cy, with the con­vic­tion that our activ­i­ty must inte­grate the eco­log­i­cal, social and eth­i­cal issues linked to dig­i­tal tech­nol­o­gy’, adds Loren­zo Berto­la, also a 2003 alum­ni of the UTC in com­put­er engi­neer­ing, who shares the con­vic­tion that diver­si­ty and social open­ness are a fac­tor of inno­va­tion for com­pa­nies. ‘We will be par­ty to the steer­ing com­mit­tee of UTC’s Chair of Social Open­ness and Inno­va­tion as well as in the tech­ni­cal com­mit­tee, shar­ing our feed­back and the actions we are tak­ing in this area. These are cen­tred around three areas: com­mu­ni­ca­tion, aware­ness-rais­ing and sup­port. In terms of com­mu­ni­ca­tion and aware­ness-rais­ing, we put in place through­out the year a wide range of ini­tia­tives to pro­mote diver­si­ty and inclu­sion, such as round tables on the sub­ject of par­i­ty in the dig­i­tal pro­fes­sions, host­ing stu­dents on our premis­es and work­shops to raise aware­ness of dis­abil­i­ty issues’. In terms of sup­port, mc2i pro­motes excel­lence, coop­er­a­tion and knowl­edge-shar­ing through all its forums and school interventions.
