Who exhibits

Typical profile

LMS and LXP platform publishers, authoring tools, bespoke e-learning content production studios, assessment and certification players, virtual classroom and immersive training providers. The trade show addresses both large accounts and SMEs in the process of digitising their internal training.

Notable exhibitors

The full list of exhibitors and the floor plan are published on the official page: Innovative Learning exhibitors. The positioning highlights platform publishers and content studios, the core target of French digital learning.

Visitor quality

The announced visitorship is dominated by training decision-makers: training and L&D managers, HR directors, digital learning project leaders, solution buyers. The organiser claims 9,140 visitors in 2025 (+15% vs 2024), an in-house figure not audited by OJS, to be read as an order of magnitude of audience rather than a certified volume. Co-location with Solutions RH and the other trade shows in the HR-digital cluster mechanically broadens the pool of decision-makers present on site.

Events & community

Conference programme

The organiser announces more than 90 conferences and workshops with free access included in the visitor badge, spread across the two days. The programme covers the sector's trends: AI applied to training, mobile learning, measuring the impact of solutions, instructional design. The detailed programme for the 2027 edition is published in the run-up to the trade show on the official website.

Prizes and awards

The Trophées du Digital Learning reward the best digital training projects and solutions each year, with a ceremony built into the trade show. The organiser reports more than 120 entries submitted for the 2025 edition. The winners' list can be consulted on the dedicated website t-dl.fr.

Community & networks

The trade show brings together the French digital learning community: publishers, studios, training departments and the HR ecosystem. Co-location with Solutions RH, Digital Workplace, Documation & iExpo and the Forum Cybersécurité, Cloud, IA makes it an annual meeting point for the HR-digital cluster at Porte de Versailles, in line with a digital learning market historically also driven by Learning Technologies.

How much it costs to exhibit

Preparing your visit

For the exhibitor

• 6 months out: commercial contact with Infopromotions, choice of positioning and trade-off between stand and conference sponsorship.
• 4 months out: application to the Trophées du Digital Learning, a strong visibility lever on the digital learning market, particularly for recent studios and publishers.
• 3 months out: aligning your message with the expectations of the training decision-maker audience (impact measurement, applied AI, industrialisation of solutions).
• 6 weeks out: team briefing, preparation of product demos and activation of meetings via the trade show platform.

For the decision-maker visitor

• Online registration mandatory, a single badge gives access to the co-located cluster (Solutions RH, Digital Workplace, Documation & iExpo, Forum Cybersécurité Cloud IA).
• Plan your route: the shared ticketing makes it possible to cover digital training, HR and digital workplace in a single visit, target the stands in advance.
• Schedule the priority conferences: the programme is dense and published a few weeks before the trade show.
• Follow the Trophées du Digital Learning to spot the year's award-winning solutions and providers.

Policy & CSR initiatives

No formalised CSR approach specific to Innovative Learning is published on the event's website. The organising group Weyou Group publishes a CSR/ESG policy built around three pillars (environment, social, governance), with a commitment to equal pay for equal roles and an SNCF partnership to reduce the carbon footprint of event-related travel. The venue, Paris Expo Porte de Versailles operated by Viparis, has been certified ISO 20121 since 2014 across all its sites: Viparis was the first player worldwide to obtain this global certification for the sustainable management of events. Viparis also reports 0% greenhouse gas emissions (scopes 1 and 2) since 2019 as part of its Better Events 2030 strategy. The 2025 programme session devoted to Decathlon's sustainability feedback is a conference topic, not a commitment by the organiser.

How the trade show has evolved

Trajectory analysis

The trade show has undergone a recent rebrand: from eLearning Expo, the historic brand of French digital learning, to Innovative Learning by eLearning Expo, which retains the heritage while broadening the scope. The momentum announced by the organiser is one of growth, from around 7,950 claimed visitors in 2024 to 9,140 in 2025 (+15%), on a base of roughly 250 exhibitors. These volumes are in-house figures not audited by OJS, to be read as a trend rather than certified data. The positioning now rests largely on co-location with Solutions RH and the Porte de Versailles HR-digital cluster, which pools the decision-maker audience and places Innovative Learning within an annual event broader than digital learning alone.
