Reinvent the airport city of Roissypole

Groupe ADP is offering you a unique experience: imagine the future of the Roissypole airport district, located at the heart of Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport. It’s over to you and your team to reinvent the airport city and transform the Roissypole district into an appealing, connected, urban, enjoyable and lively living environment. Submit your vision of the city of the future (be careful, Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport isn't the focus of this challenge).

How to take part

Register online, form a team of 2-4 people and submit an innovative project designed to help create a dynamic airport city. As well as the unique opportunity to pitch your project to an audience of professionals, you and your team will also be in the running to win a round-the-world trip! So don’t delay – take part in Season 2 of the Play Your Airport challenge, which is open to all students.

Because we value collaboration, you’ll keep all intellectual property rights to your project following the challenge.

Your mission

Roissypole has grown along with the airport, and is home to a range of businesses that are attracted to the area’s excellent connections and its many hotels. The aim now is to help Roissypole take it to the next level by making it more appealing, better connected, more urban, more enjoyable and safer – but above all, by transforming it into a living environment that creates a sense of well-being. Whatever their needs, mood and pace of life, everyone should be able to find what they’re looking for in terms of services, information, or work and recreational spaces.

This means re-writing the area’s entire marketing strategy. Your project should energize the district at the heart of the airport city by designing services and events for Roissypole, reinventing its facilities and offering innovative solutions to bring public areas to life. 

Through this challenge, we’re offering you support to take your ideas as far as possible. You could even see your project in action!

YOUR PLAYING FIELD

Recommendations

Any and all projects that are designed to energize the Roissypole district are eligible to take part in the challenge. Bear in mind that we’re not asking you for a catalogue of ideas setting out the details of this future city – instead, we want you to focus on one or several in-depth ideas that could be integrated into the Roissypole district. Also remember that Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport isn’t the focus of this challenge.

Proposals must be achievable in the near future. Prioritize finding a business model that ensures your project’s sustainability.

The project should take diversity – including culture, age, place of origin and disability – into account.
