Suitable for a one- or two-semester course for undergraduate and graduate students, this interdisciplinary textbook explains the diverse aspects of innovation and social networks, which occupy a central place in business and policy agendas. Its unified approach presents networks as nested systems that can span organisations, industries, regions, and markets, giving students a holistic perspective […]
On January 1st, 2017, Pierre Simay was appointed as the new OISPG Rapporteur. This group of experts from the European Commission supports and promotes open innovation practices, particularly in the context of the Horizon 2020 program. “Today’s companies can no longer innovate alone. They exist in innovation ecosystems in which the collaborative model is […]
On February 11, 2015 an open workshop will be held in Brussels to present the results of the European cycLED project. This research program has supported four SMEs in the lighting sector in their eco-innovation projects aimed at designing more efficient LEDs, from both an economic and an ecological point of view. Cédric Gossart, a […]
Reindustrialization is a major issue in France, that requires industrial models to be redesigned so that they are more ethical, sustainable and locally rooted. What are the challenges to face in this transition in terms of responsibility, the impact of digital technology and the role of local authorities? Pierre-Antoine Chardel, Professor of Social Sciences and Ethics at IMT Business School, sheds light on this topic.
Dymitria is a project led by researchers from IMT Nord Europe, aiming to quantify local microplastics pollution and gain a better understanding of its transfer in the environment. This project is part of a consortium of national projects and will also contribute to harmonizing methods of analysis.
Benjamin Dupas founded the start-up Wallace Technologies in Clermont-Ferrand in 2020. He was joined in 2024 by Pauline Chanin Lambert, a researcher at Mines Saint-Étienne, while he was working on a research contract there. These two professional engineers aim to revolutionize energy storage using thermal batteries, offering a model that is both efficient and sustainable.
Thomas Delapierre lived in Australia for many years and witnessed the environmental devastation facing the country: forest fires, floods, and other natural disasters that are enough to cause eco-anxiety. This personal experience led him to set up a project “that would ensure a minimum standard of living for everyone,” the start-up Alhomna Systems. Founded in 2023, it seeks to transform wet waste into valuable resources using solar energy technology: SolarDry.
Invisible leaks, massive emissions: measuring greenhouse gases in the field remains a challenge. Mirega, a young start-up backed by high-level optical expertise, is developing a miniature infrared sensor designed to go where other instruments cannot. This technology is designed to meet growing demands in terms of detection, mobility, and climate.
Developing an embedded electronic solution in a matter of weeks rather than years: that’s the challenge taken up by Renardo, a young start-up incubated at IMT Atlantique. Born out of the industrial and educational experience of its two founders, the start-up offers a modular ecosystem combining hardware and software. The aim is to increase responsiveness and democratize electronic innovation, while meeting industry requirements.
Faced with a shortage of skilled craftspeople, passing on expertise is becoming crucial. To address this issue, the young start-up Myothesis has developed a smart bracelet that can record professional movements and reproduce them in 3D. This solution helps to provide better and faster training in sectors where training still relies heavily on direct observation.
