Become a Member of Renaissance Numérique

A one-of-a-kind expertise network on all things digital

 The think tank’s network of members  is unique in its diversity and its high level of expertise. Renaissance Numérique is open to a variety of actors contributing to the public debate around digital transformation issues, nourished by their expertise and their experience, and drawn in by their eagerness to go outside the box and engage in a constructive confrontation of ideas. It brings together academics, experts, leading figures, NGOs, and companies, all stemming from the diverse range of actors and points of view that make up the digital field.

Throughout the year, this network comes to life through joint work, meetings and events, and brainstorming sessions within working groups. Members have privileged access to the think tank’s activities, and to the high-level network of experts it brings together.

Bringing forward a digital public debate in France and Europe

Renaissance Numérique is a space for debate, a space for the confrontation of expertise and experience, which allows for the development of original ideas in reaction to the issues raised by the digital transformation of our society.

The think tank’s working method relies on an open and collaborative approach, based on a voluntary and positive confrontation of ideas. Members have an active role in the elaboration of its agenda, the steering of its working groups, and the organisation of its thematic committees.

Becoming a member gives the opportunity to participate in the commissions and working groups that develop the think tank’s contributions and positions.

Engaging in a privileged dialogue with the actors of the digital field

Renaissance Numérique organises high-level meetings reserved to its members. The think tank’s positioning, focused on public interest, allows for a rare quality and freedom of exchange with the political and public decision-makers who shape the digital world in France and Europe. These meetings also offer members the opportunity to exchange with actors who, on a daily basis, think and implement digital innovation in their field of activity.

How to become a member

Membership within Renaissance Numérique is founded on the principle of cooptation. Following each membership request, the think tank’s Board issues an opinion, through a vote. The vote is based on two criteria: the potential member’s digital expertise, and their suitability with the think tank’s mission statement.

Being a member of Renaissance Numérique translates into an annual membership fee, which ranges from 60 euros to 15 000 euros depending on the member’s profile.

For organisations, the think tank’s annual fee is established through a pricing scale that takes into account the organisation’s turnover in France or its budget.

For individual members, the fee is fixed.
