Discover 13M, the accelerator for digital inclusion.

At a time when 16 million people claim to have difficulty accessing or using digital tools, digital inclusion is an essential lever for equal opportunity.

Faced with this challenge, Banque des Territoires, in partnership with Nantes Métropole, Metropole de Lyon, H7 and Groupe SOS, is launching the third edition of 13M, the first gas pedal in favor of digital inclusion.

The aim of 13M is to identify and support 8 structures - associations, social and solidarity organizations, impact start-ups - that are actively helping to reduce digital inequalities in their area.
