To make it easier for companies to locate to anywhere in Ille-et-Vilaine, the Conseil général has two specific tools available. Firstly, there is the economic development agency (Idea 35). Secondly, there is a website promoting Ille-et-Vilaine's business parks - cartoparc.

Idea 35 prospects and promotes the département's advantages, to attract businesses to Ille-et-Vilaine. Since 2005, the agency has been given new responsibilities i.e. assistance for geographical areas and local or regional authorities to ensure that their offers are more efficient and more attractive.
The agency has a budget of 1.2 million euros (840,000 euros of this comes from the Conseil général).

The Conseil général has launched a website to promote and market business parks in Ille-et-Vilaine. Called cartoparc (lien vers www.cartoparc.fr). this interactive tool provides views of business parks and lists available land and premises in the various towns and villages. The information is of great use to businesses wishing to locate to Ille-et-Vilaine.
Searches are undertaken by geographical area, surface area, purpose, services to businesses, type of amenity or the purchase price of a plot of land or a building. Local authorities are partners in the scheme and they update the data over an extranet.

Ille-et-Vilaine has 500 industrial, business or trade parks managed by Ille-et-Vilaine's 26 district councils (communautés de communes) and the 3 greater city councils (communautés d'agglomération).
In 2006, Idea 35 was involved in setting up 13 businesses in Ille-et-Vilaine and creating 179 new jobs.
