An IRT NANOELEC partner
Grenoble Ecole de Management is part of a French government investment program know as the IRT Nanoelec (Institute for Technological Research in Nanoelectronics). The program promotes research in the field of information and communication technology. It encourages the sharing of knowledge and technology, which benefits small, medium and large companies in the Grenoble region.
The IRT Nanoelec includes 20 founding members (companies, research labs and higher education) who collaborate to carry out world-class research in the field of nanoelectronics. The partners also work to apply this research to innovative products and applications in various fields such as energy, transportation, housing and healthcare.
As founding members of the IRT Nanoelec, Grenoble Ecole de Management and Grenoble INP develop training programs that cover everything from technology to markets and entrepreneurship in order to help expand the skillset of the many IRT Nanoelec partners.
