Partnerships & Valorization

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
