From 35 m² to a collective adventure
In 2010, three passionate individuals settled into a 35 m² office in Montpellier with a simple yet ambitious idea: transforming the way everyday services are organized and managed.
This dream could have remained just an intuition, but it quickly found support: the Cap Ômega incubator, the Metropolis and the Occitanie Region, as well as the first partners who believed in us when everything still had to be proven.
Growing with an engaged ecosystem
MoveWORK has never grown alone. From the very beginning, the local ecosystem played a key role:
innovation support programs, funding from Bpifrance, guidance from regional experts, and above all, the trust of our first clients.
Healthcare institutions, local authorities, and cleaning companies agreed to test our early-stage solutions. Their high standards shaped our decisions and anchored our DNA: combining technology with real, on-the-ground usefulness.
A deeply human journey
Our story is not just that of a company, but that of a collective:
visionary founders, passionate teams, supportive institutional and economic partners, pioneering clients who believed in us, and dedicated collaborators who built every milestone with resilience.
Every success is the result of a local ecosystem that enabled MoveWORK to take root and open itself to the world, without ever losing its soul.
A family-owned company that became an international player
From a small family business to a partner of major groups across Europe and beyond, MoveWORK has remained true to its original promise: bringing more transparency, efficiency, and humanity to Facility Management.
Our story is not only one of international growth; it is also the story of a deeply European company, rooted in its home regions while expanding far beyond their borders. Nothing sustainable can be built without the trust of local stakeholders, yet it is this European cultural and economic diversity that has shaped our vision and strengthened our resilience.
Today, this dual identity locally anchored and globally open defines who we are. It enables us to embrace a pioneering role in a rapidly evolving sector, balancing operational performance, social responsibility, and innovation.
The future of MoveWORK is being written as a collective journey: a trusted European community where every employee, partner, and client contributes to building a more responsible, more efficient, and more human model of Facility Management.
When I think back to MoveWORK’s early days, I can still see our small team of three people in a 35 m² office, driven by one big idea: transforming the way everyday services are organized and managed. We had neither certainty nor comfort only one conviction: Facility Services could, and should, become more transparent, more efficient, and more human.
Behind this conviction were faces and invaluable support. My wife, who encouraged and guided me through moments of doubt as well as success; my children, my loved ones, and dear friends were the first to believe in this project. Their unwavering trust kept us moving forward when everything felt uncertain. Our partners shared both the risks and the achievements essential companions on this journey.
Along the way, we faced obstacles and moments of questioning, but each difficulty strengthened our vision: building a company that does more than deliver technology one that truly improves the daily lives of thousands of agents, managers, and clients.
Today, MoveWORK is no longer a fragile young startup. It is a recognized platform, deployed in critical environments such as healthcare and industry, chosen by service providers and major groups who entrust us with what they value most: the trust of their clients and the well-being of their teams.
I am convinced that our greatest achievement is not only technological or economic. It is human. It lies in the strength of our teams, the loyalty of our clients, and the shared adventure with everyone who supports us.
The future remains to be written, but it will be built as it has been until now: with passion, resilience, and that deep energy that comes from working for something greater than ourselves. »
