A proactive approach
The IRAMIS Partnerships and Valorization Unit supports the Institute’s teams in setting up partnerships and valorizing their research work. It helps to :
- Raise researchers’ awareness of valorization, technology transfer and intellectual property
- Support teams in setting up collaborative research or valorization projects, in line with societal challenges
- Assess the potential for valorizing research results to identify areas of application and potentially interested industrial players
- Promote IRAMIS’ research skills and instrumental platforms at national and European level
- Establish industrial partnerships for technology transfer
Each collaboration is a special case, and the unit aims to propose the most appropriate scheme:
- National or European collaborative programs (ANR, PEPR, Horizon Europe…)
- R&D contracts with industry
- Transfer of patented technologies, via licensing of know-how or patent exploitation
- Joint research laboratories
- Support for start-ups

Industrial partnerships
Establishing scientific partnerships with industry is at the heart of IRAMIS’ strategy. The IRAMIS Partnerships and Valorization Unit supports its industrial partners in meeting their needs. It offers solutions tailored to each of its partners:
- Feasibility studies
- Collaboration program financed at national or European level (ANR, Horizon Europe…)
- Bilateral collaboration contract, based on a jointly defined research program
- Joint laboratory agreement, based on a shared research program and governance
IRAMIS collaborates with start-ups, SMEs and major corporations.
European and international projects
IRAMIS is involved in more than forty European and international projects, some of which it coordinates. These include :
Joint laboratories
-
CiCLOP / Orsay Physics
The fruit of several years’ collaboration between CIMAP and Orsay Physics, the CiCLOp joint Laboratory was selected at the end of 2018 on the ANR LabCom program.
-
CLOE / Cristal Laser
The “CLOE – Cristaux Laser pour l’Optique de l’Extrême” joint laboratory, is a partnership between IRAMIS/LIDYL and Cristal Laser, a company specializing in the production of nonlinear optical crystals.
-
IPDN – Integrated Passives Devices of Normandy / Murata IPS
The IPDN (Integrated Passive Devices in Normandy) was created at the end of 2021, for a period of 5 years.
-
LACTIF / Europrotect
The Laboratoire Commun sur les Textiles Innovants Fonctionnels (LACTIF) was selected at the end of 2019 under the ANR LabCom program. It’ll strengthen the existing collaboration between NIMBE and EUROPROTECT.
