We envision a world where timely, reliable information drives organizational success and fosters continuous improvement, ultimately transforming lives and communities. Our goal is to pave the way for sustainable progress and self-directed learning, inspiring growth and positive change at every level.
History
3iS is a not-for-profit organization created in September 2008, registered in France as an Association by law of 1901.

Our teams leverage the latest technological innovations from both the private sector and academia to maximize the potential of information to better create positive impact.
