On 1 July 2025, the French government launched the “Osez L’IA” plan, with the aim of spreading artificial intelligence throughout all French companies, from microbusinesses to large corporations.
For a company like IZEMX, which operates in Paris and Morocco, this plan represents a major strategic opportunity: both to support client companies in their digital transformation and to position itself as an expert AI partner in the French market.
In this article, we break down the objectives, areas of action, and challenges for businesses—and how IZEMX can help you take full advantage of the Osez l’IA plan.
Objectives of the “Osez l’IA” plan
Key figures and targets for 2030
The plan sets ambitious objectives:
- 100% of large French groups must be using AI by 2030. Economy and Finance+1
- 80% of French SMEs/mid-cap companies must have adopted AI.
- 50% of French micro-enterprises must integrate AI.
Why this plan?
- AI is identified as a lever for competitiveness: anticipated productivity gains of around 20% for businesses.
- Large companies are already well advanced, but micro-businesses/SMEs are struggling to take the plunge.
- France also aims to strengthen its technological sovereignty, particularly in generative AI and infrastructure.

An “Ambassadeurs IA” scheme in each region enables companies to benefit from local support.
