Research chairs strengthen the links between academia and industry, which includes businesses, local authorities and associations, through long-term partnerships. Based on a multi-year commitment, ranging from 3 to 5 years, industry can contribute to the work of a research team, play a part in designing innovative courses or cooperate on strategic themes. In this way, research chairs pave the way to scientific, technical or educational innovation.
