The VP-IP Chair at the Mines-Télécom Institute was created in April 2013 in partnership with Imprimerie Nationale (now IN Groupe), BNP Paribas, and Dassault Systèmes. Since then, the Chair has benefited from the collaboration of the French Data Protection Authority (CNIL) and the support of the Mines-Télécom Foundation. Orange joined the Chair in 2014 and Clever Cloud in 2024.
In 2021, a partnership was established with the Catholic University of Louvain.
The VP-IP Chair has also benefited from sponsorship from Deveryware (2014-2016), LVMH (2015-2017), Sopra Stéria (2018-2020) and Qwant (2018-2019), in addition to sponsorship from BNPP (2013-2022) and Dassault Système (2013-2022).
