The collective’s aim is to raise awareness among political parties and candidates in the 2017 presidential election of the challenges of digital technology, and the leverage it represents for employment and economic growth in France.

The joint platform will send a questionnaire to the candidates declared for the presidential election, asking for their proposals on five digital-related themes.

Throughout the campaign, the joint platform will be responsible for posting responses online, and will enable web users to compare the positions of the various candidates.
