La Garonne et le Pont Neuf à Toulouse

Auticonsult company chose Toulouse

Company: Auticonsult

Interview

In Toulouse since October 2019

Find out why Flora Thiebault chose Toulouse as the location for her company Auticonsult.

Auticonsult is a digital company that has the particularity of employing autistic consultants. This makes us an digital services company with a triple impact: the first is technological since we put at the service of our clients' digital projects both the technical skills of our consultants and their cognitive skills, which are very atypical and which are a real vector of innovation within our clients' teams. The second impact is social: we offer permanent contracts to a population that is still widely discriminated against in France. Our third impact is societal, since through this successful experience of working with our consultants, we hope to be able to change mentalities, not only within our clients' teams but also in a broader way by enhancing the professional skills of people with autism.
Why Toulouse? Well, for the dynamism of the Occitan region, both at the industrial and technological level, and at the level of autism because there are a lot of university and associations’ initiatives, in support of the autistic population of this region.
We have a double objective: the first is to offer a maximum of contracts and employment opportunities to autistic people in the Occitanie region, in our fields which are data, IT development, research, testing and security. Our second objective is to meet as many needs as possible within companies in the region, which are also in various fields, aeronautics, scientific research, space, mobility of the future, GreenTech, pharmaceuticals and health!
La société Auticonsult s'implante à Toulouse
We were welcomed in Toulouse, notably by Toulouse Métropole Attractiveness agency who helped us find the premises; We are very well established in Bordelongue business incubator, they also gave us contacts and helped to find new opportunities.
We were also very supported by our first two historical clients. The first to trust us in the region are Airbus and CNES. They continue to entrust us with projects, and we thank them for that. I will also mention our other clients, including Valiantys and Stelia Aerospace, who have also entrusted us with very interesting projects.
Toulouse's very first Auticonsult consultant did his first assignment at Airbus, on a tool he did not know, Splunk. He developed his skills on this tool at high speed to the point that in less than a year Airbus offered him to train other employees in this tool, by the way we also offered him to increase our expertise on Splunk. As I was telling him about his skills as a pedagogue, he corrected me by explaining that pedagogy is when you teach children, when you teach adults, it is called andragogy! I am telling this anecdote because it is very representative of our consultants: they learn on the job, very quickly and on their own, there is no limit to what they can do. Teaching is not necessarily something you associate at first with typical autistic skills, yet they can take the challenge and they can excel. Lastly, they are very precise, and they have a great concern for accuracy.

To develop in the region and to continue to offer more and more contracts to people with autism in Occitania, Auticonsult need projects, they need stimulating missions, so do not hesitate to spread the word to professionals, to companies that might need the skills of our consultants on their digital projects. Check out their website, their social networks!
