City Hall of Paris
The City Hall is closely linked to the history of Paris. The first City Hall was built in 1357 by Etienne Marcel, the leader of the merchants. It symbolized theacquired municipal freedoms against the rule of King Charles V. During the 16th century, King François I rebuilt the Town Hall in a Renaissance style. During the 19th century, it has been used twice as a refuge for the republicans who proclaimed there the French Second and Third Republic in 1848 and 1870, after the fall of King Louis Philippe and Napoleon III. But the defeat of Napoleon led to rebellion against the republican authorities. Parisians invaded the City Hall and on March 28, 1871, and the Commune of Paris was proclaimed. Repression was extremely hard. The insurrectionists set the City Hall on fire. It has been rebuilt to its identical façade from the years 1873-1882.
City of Paris, The Digital city
(Paris Ville Numerique)
Paris, one of the leading ICT cities in the world, disposes of a unique network in terms of coverage and the number of Internet providers offering high speed connections. Universal Internet service will be offered for free to the Parisians by 2008 –this also includes WiFi for a 100% coverage in the near future. Several hundreds of companies working in the ICT sector are located in Paris and its neighbouring departments. The ICT sector alone generated more than 300,000 jobs in the region. As regards the social dimension, the City of Paris benefits from an important network of associations deeply rooted in the life of the city’s districts. They support the efforts of the municipality by providing access to ICT for those who don’t have access elsewhere. Paris also possesses a strong potential of technological projects emanating from high level universities (“Grandes Ecoles”) and a large number of internationally recognized research institutes. The programme “Paris Technopole” supports young and innovative companies. Some key figures showing the significance of the ICT cluster in Paris : First research centre in fundamental mathematics in France (1,000 researchers located in the heart of the city ; 13,550 students ; 92,000 employees) ; business incubators for start-ups ; more than 8,500 companies operating in the ICT sector ; headquarters of major leading international companies. The three main areas of excellence are telecommunications, the production of multimedia content, software and IT services.
