We assist companies of all sizes, taking into account their innovation strategy, technological maturity, and financing approach, in order to secure the maximum level of funding while delivering the most relevant scientific outcomes for their future development.
Whereas an SME may seek short-term funding from Bpifrance to finance an early-stage project, a large corporation may focus on optimizing the financing rate of its entire R&D portfolio and conducting applied research activities through new publicly funded partnerships at the European or national level.
