Le quartier de Lyon Confluence est un choix stratégique car il est déjà un laboratoire vivant pour les services urbains innovants. Depuis 2016, un consortium y teste des solutions de ville efficiente, notamment la blockchain énergie, les navettes autonomes et la mobilité augmentée. C'est le terrain idéal pour notre module de règlement (SCSM).

Positionnement théorique Une smart city est modélisée comme un système cyber-physique urbain, reposant sur la théorie des systèmes complexes adaptatifs. La théorie mosaïque postule que la valeur informationnelle totale du système excède celle de ses composants isolés, avec des effets de synergie représentant 30 à 45 % de la valeur totale. Cette synergie justifie une…
Beyond the Controversy: How Schmidt’s 2024 Forecasts on AI Agents and NVIDIA Are Playing Out in 2026
Eric Schmidt’s August 2024 appearance at Stanford was an informal classroom conversation with economist Erik Brynjolfsson in the course “The Age of AI” (ECON295/CS323). Stanford posted the video, it circulated quickly, then was set to private after Schmidt asked for its removal. The episode became famous less for its technical content than for two unfiltered…
Two invisible infrastructures converge in 2026: MiCA's licensed perimeter for crypto-assets, and the ISO 20022 migration of payment messaging. One regulates assets, the other the messages that carry them. What boards need to understand before November.
Since 1 July 2026, a MiCA license is mandatory for crypto-asset service providers across all 27 EU member states,…
For a decade, the value of a digital asset depended on the promise of a higher resale price. The tokenization of real-world assets (RWA) reverses this logic: value is now read in cash flows, rents, coupons, interest—generated by the underlying asset and distributed automatically. Analysis of a paradigm shift that brings crypto closer to private…
Thesis. The 2026 AI cycle shifts from conversational models to "digital workers" (agents) and physical AI (robots, driving, inspection); value migrates from the model layer to operational integration and automated real assets, converging directly with smart cities and tokenizable infrastructure. Key Data. ~71% of companies are expected to integrate AI agents into key functions…
Thesis. Two "invisible" projects converge in 2026: the completion of the licensed perimeter under MiCA (crypto) and the ISO 20022 mandate for structured addresses (payments). Together, they shape the compliance-execution layer of European programmable finance.
Key data. MiCA: ART/EMT applicable since 30/06/2024; CASP since 30/12/2024; end of grandfathering on 01/07/2026 (some states earlier: Germany/Ireland…
Bitcoin rallied 6% in the week of August 19, triggered by a yields at their highest since 2007, seen as a fiscal easing signal. CoinShares' James Butterfill noted the rally was driven by macroeconomic factors, not crypto-specific dynamics. T. Rowe Price identified the "debasement trade" as the key driver, where investors shift from cash and…
Circular financing in the AI sector refers to a tightly interlinked system of equity investments, compute commitments, guarantees, and off-balance-sheet structures among chipmakers, hyperscalers, AI labs, and data-center operators. Money and obligations circulate among a small group of counterparties, accelerating infrastructure buildout while amplifying downside risks if end-user monetization falls short.
