CONTEXT
In the context of his election as Chair of the Urban community of Dunkirk, Mayor Vergriete launched a new strategy for the administration, in the form of 30 measures. 4 of these dealt with innovation, one relating directly to an innovation lab. La Transfo was launched in this perspective, as the most concrete outcome of the new vision.
