Université Paris-Saclay, a leading player in innovation

Описание: Université Paris-Saclay, France's top university, has placed its relationships with companies at the heart of its strategy, promoting entrepreneurship within its academic community and facilitating technology transfer. The ecosystem has led to the creation of the university innovation cluster (Pôle universitaire d’innovation – PUI) Innovation Alliance Université Paris-Saclay.

In July 2023, the university was awarded the PUI label as part of the government’s France 2030 investment plan, bringing together Université Paris-Saclay, Université Évry, Université de Versailles Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines, AgroParisTech, CentraleSupélec, ENS Paris-Saclay, Institut d'Optique Graduate School, the National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS), INRAE, Inria, the French National Institute of Health and Medical Research (Inserm), IncubAlliance, SATT Paris-Saclay and fifteen partners. The strategic objective of Innovation Alliance Université Paris-Saclay, with its remarkable local assets in terms of academic excellence and start-up creation (more than 50 companies created per year), socio-economic network (large corporate groups, SMEs, start-ups, local authorities, associations...) and international recognition, is to develop and strengthen innovation that tackles current and future societal challenges and encourages human progress.
