LightOn, a French provider of secure AI for sensitive data, announced on May 27, 2026 that it had signed a three-year contract with Infocom’94. Infocom’94 is a syndicat mixte, a joint body of public authorities, and a public digital operator in Île-de-France that pools IT management for 26 local authorities representing 463,000 inhabitants, the release says. The release is in French. The AMF, France’s financial markets regulator, lists it as inside information, the label for news that a listed company has to publish as soon as it can.1^,2^,3^,4

According to the release, Infocom’94 chose LightOn after a market study and a competitive evaluation, citing the quality of its relationship with the team, the performance of its products and its ability to meet sovereignty requirements. The release quotes Vincent Kerbiquet, the director of Infocom’94, as saying the body chose LightOn because it was the reliable, attentive and responsive team it wanted to build with over the long term. He also said the data of its members, in areas such as finance, human resources, schooling and social housing, must not leave the perimeter concerned.5^,6^,7

The release said Infocom’94 wanted to build conversational AI into its ticket-management system to automate level 1 and 2 support requests and ease the load on its support teams. A chatbot available around the clock was to be offered to the agents of member municipalities, able to answer simple questions or open a ticket, and the solution was to be deployed in a hybrid sovereign architecture with data stored on-premise. The platform was meant to become the base of Infocom’94’s AI strategy and was designed to scale to other authorities that had already shown interest.8^,9^,10

Igor Carron, LightOn’s chief executive and co-founder, said the partnership with Infocom’94 showed the company could meet the highest performance and security demands of the territorial public sector. The company said it already supported entities including the Île-de-France regional council, and that several large urban areas and prefectures were evaluating its products for document and automation needs.11^,12
