Take action as a community-driven company

VINCI is committed to encouraging and guiding the civic engagement of its employees and companies, in particular through its foundations and endowment funds. In liaison with solidarity non-profits, it supports locally focused projects that help strengthen social ties and help the long-term unemployed back into employment.

The Fondation VINCI pour la Cité and its 14 sister organisations, present in 17 countries around the world, supported 564 projects with 2,093 engagement initiatives by VINCI employees. Nearly €6.5 million in grants was awarded in 2024.

Along with this programme, other community initiatives are taken by the Group’s business lines, divisions and companies. These include Issa in Africa, to support the economic and social development of African regions and local communities, the Fonds SEA pour la Transition des Territoires, and the Chantiers et Territoires Solidaires endowment fund to support public-interest projects located near Grand Paris Express worksites.

Partner with regions

VINCI companies are firmly rooted in the regions. They contribute to the growth of economic activity, employment and tax take. Another in-depth study ^(*) was conducted in 2024 to accurately measure this footprint in France. Its findings confirm the far-reaching impact of VINCI’s businesses in many sectors, beyond those directly linked to its businesses, showing that the value created has had a balanced impact across all regions. According to the 2023 study, VINCI contributed 1.5% to France’s gross domestic product (GDP) through its direct, indirect and induced impacts across its entire value chain and supported 1.6% of jobs in France. Group companies can draw on this information when developing their strategy for relations with their local regions. Study data also shows that, in 2023, 96% of Group purchases were made on the French domestic market, 48% of which from SMEs. Priority is on working with local suppliers and subcontractors to make a lasting and inclusive contribution to regional growth.

This goes hand in hand with a responsible purchasing policy, based on identifying risks, considering non-financial criteria in purchasing decisions, and supporting suppliers and subcontractors in their social and environmental practices, in line with the Group’s commitments.
