Axione has fulfilled a public interest mission in the scope of the “Plan France Très Haut Débit” (Very High Speed France Plan) to ensure the digital development of France’s regions. Representing a symbolic city in Axione's narrative, Pau and its surrounding region is one of the first to be 100% connected via fibre optic. Commissioned by the Communauté d'Agglomération Pau Béarn Pyrénées urban community, the public service delegation "La Fibre Paloise" (LFP), a subsidiary of Axione, has managed to connect one in every two inhabitants of Pau (in Pau itself and the surrounding suburbs), as well as many local businesses, to the network.

The inauguration of the site in Pau is a symbolic moment for Axione: it confirms the company's ambition to develop the region commercially in collaboration with its main institutional and industrial partners.

During this day, the local teams welcomed customers and partners. In order to provide guests with an even more concrete and immersive experience, a series of workshops presenting the businesses were organized: demonstration of optical fiber welding, demonstration of a connection operation through a virtual reality helmet... The network operations center was also exceptionally open to show the teams behind their screens supervising the networks 24/7.
