Association des instituts Carnot

The Association des instituts Carnot was created to bring together and lead the Carnot institutes network. It organises and structures the network's operations, working with a streamlined team and as part of a flexible organisation in which the Carnot institutes are heavily involved.

 
To fit with its major  partenarial research development goal, AiCarnot leads collective actions for the network around the 4 main axes below :

- Support for Carnot institutes partnerial research development
A network organized collectively and at each Carnot institute level to better answer enterprises research needs.
- development of the Carnot institutes attractivity for companies
Beyond the scientific quality of Carnot institutes' laboratories, the network attractivity relies on a good opening and listening ability and on the definition of "Carnot standards" of profesionalism and quality for research partnership.
- Development of the national and the international visibilities of the Carnot network
Being at the best scientifical international level and going toward research programs for companies benefits : our offer, our expertise and our know-how are structured in order to raise awareness and to facilitate their  access to all our partners.
- Integration and coordination of the institutes' actions within the network
Our network strength requires a good integration of all its members and their ability to work together and to organize themselves to be more efficient and to give our partners expectations a more structured and adequate answer: « toghether, further, stronger ».

AiCarnot funds come mainly from the Carnot institutes. Note that every Carnot institute is automatically a member of AiCarnot.
