The Public Business Law team at Joffe & Associés (Mathieu Gaudemet, Marie-Alix Mallet and Pierre Delarousse) is delighted to have assisted Hub One at every stage of the procedure (award, negotiation and finalization) leading to the award of a concession contract by the Société du Grand Paris, for the design, financing, implementation, operation and maintenance of a wifi and Internet of Things (IoT) network in the rights-of-way of the Grand Paris Express stations.
The contract will run for 14 years, and will cover stations on the extension of line 14, stations on the new lines 15 to 18, and the trains running on these lines. It will be operated by a project company owned by Hub One and Banque des Territoires (Caisse des Dépôts et Consignations group).
Hub One, a subsidiary of the ADP group and an operator of digital technologies for businesses, has been chosen to deploy the network and operate the wifi network and the network of connected objects in the stations and trains of the Grand Paris Express. A dedicated project company is to be set up rapidly, with the Banque des Territoires (CDC) as a minority shareholder, to carry out this 14-year concession. In particular, it will ensure the connection of the first stations on the line 14 extension, in June 2024, in preparation for the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
In addition to WiFi internet connection, the project company will also offer several additional services, such as professional WiFi offers, the marketing of advertising space on the connection portal, a connection service for passengers arriving from abroad, and an Internet of Things (IoT) network to facilitate services for professionals.
