The CDRT (Club des Dirigeants Réseaux et Télécoms) aims to bring together business leaders from telecommunication and network service companies but also from all companies involved in IT and telecommunication convergence; equipment manufacturers, software publishers, telecommunications operators, IT integrators, etc.
This association has 195 members representing 161 companies on our 5 delegations (IDF, Rhône Alpes, PACA, Ouest Occitanie).

Confrontés aux nouveaux enjeux posés par la convergence IT et Télécoms, et au challenge des communications et de la collaboration unifiées, les dirigeants des entreprises de l’Informatique  et des Télécoms sont de plus en plus préoccupés. Si les technologies convergeaient effectivement, il fallait aussi faire converger les dirigeants de ces deux secteurs.
They therefore needed a space in which to dialogue, study, reflect and exchange with each other and with market players.

Interview d’Eric Jotti – Directeur Général de Groupe Interway

 » Groupe Interway est reconnu depuis plus de 10 ans en tant qu’expert Réseau & Télécoms et a développé depuis longtemps des réseaux intelligents pour gérer les configurations complexes de ses clients.
Participating in the Network and Telecom Managers' Club is perfectly in line with our growth strategy in this sector of the Telecom market and thus accentuates our visibility on the SD-WAN solutions as a significant actor.

As a reminder, the SD-WAN solutions apporte l’agilité, la performance, la transparence et la sécurité nécessaires pour se libérer des contraintes d’architecture et s’adapter aux exigences de transformations digitales en garantissant un accès fiable aux applications métiers.
Le SD-WAN solutions shake up the market by shifting value closer to users and their uses, where Groupe Interway has been in place for more than 20 years." 

After the takeover of SIS in 2017, Groupe Interway continued its external growth strategy by acquiring In Store Solution, a consultant, designer, manufacturer and integrator of dynamic display solutions, kiosks, and interactive furniture (interactive terminals, touch windows, etc. ). An acquisition that aims to complement and diversify the software and hardware solutions offered by the Group.

Groupe Interway announces the acquisition in mid-February 2019 of 100% from Instore Solution, which becomes a full subsidiary of the Group. This external growth operation is part of the development plan initiated 3 years ago, when BNP Paribas Développement and Bpifrance acquired a minority stake in the capital of Groupe Interway.

To date, the Group's organic and external development strategy has largely borne fruit: INTERWAY expects a turnover of 44 million euros in 2018, and 52 million euros in 2019, i.e. growth of 18 %. The Group also aims to reach 75 million turnover in 2022 and become a benchmark ESN (Digital Service Company) in France.

Patrick Benoit, Chairman of Groupe Interway analyzes this takeover: “We are very happy to integrate In Store Solution into the fold of our Group. The company will keep its DNA and pursue its own development, but our solutions already present many synergies. Together, we will be able to diversify into the fields of health, corporate, and many others ”.
