A major project in Rhône-Alpes, a region of France with a high potential for research in Sciences and Engineering, the Carnot institute I@L proposes the promotion and the organization of partnership research, through a multidisciplinary approach, deployed to fundamental research and business.
I@L consolidates the combined activities of 11 laboratories in Lyon, France. Their research skills are recognized nationally and internationally for their innovative modelling and cutting edge experiments.
Together these research units offer a truly integrated response to the complex problem of innovation, and open up certain prospects to today’s and tomorrow’s technological, environmental and societal challenges.
Covering a broad scientific field, I@L increases the synergy of strong and structuring poles:
- AXELERA
- LYON URBAN TRUCKS & BUS 2015
- VIAMECA
- PLASTIPOLIS
- TECHTERA
- MACODEV
- AUTOMOTIVE
- AEROSPACE
- AGMAT ....
