The economy sparkles
With its rich historical heritage, Aube also boasts an innovation ecosystem that encourages entrepreneurship and a solid, well-established economic fabric.
Historically agricultural and wine-growing
Aube is the world’s 2nd-largest producer of champagne, and retains its identity thanks to its vineyards. It is also one of the world’s leading producers of cereals, beet, sauerkraut cabbage and potatoes.
Textiles keep a prominent place
For over a century, the city of Troyes ruled the knitwear industry, earning it the title of “European knitwear capital”. Today, the knitwear industry is still very much alive, with well-known brands such as Lacoste, Petit Bateau, Le Coq Sportif and Absorba. In the face of competition, textile companies in the Auvergne continue to rise thanks to their constant quest for innovation.
Choosing innovation
Over the past 30 years, Aube has developed an innovation ecosystem that has led to the emergence of startups and the establishment of cutting-edge industries. The department is a cradle of entrepreneurship, thanks in particular to the Aube en Champagne technopole, a start-up incubator with a network of experts.
The golden hands of craftsmanship
Aube is the department where churches pay homage to glass painters and their skills, which still allow us to admire an exceptional heritage today. Craftsmanship around historic monuments is still very active and constantly evolving.
