THE INNOVATION FACTORY RECEIVES A SOUTH AMERICAN DELEGATION ON INNOVATION AND TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER

On April 19, the Fabrique de l'Innovation participated alongside Pulsalys and the Center d'Entrepreneuriat in a workshop organized by the University of Lyon 2 as part of the TETRIS project (TEchnology Transfer Innovation Schemes in Latin America) around the innovation and technology transfer.

A South American delegation of 40 academic actors from Bolivia, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador and Panama was welcomed to the LyonTech-la Doua campus. The objective of this day organized by the University Lyon 2 in partnership with the Fabrique de l'Innovation, Pulsalys and the Lyon Saint-Etienne Entrepreneurship Center, was to make them discover the missions of these three innovation and entrepreneurship systems of the University of Lyon as well as their articulation.

After a presentation of the three devices in the premises of Pulsalys during which the Fabrique de l'Innovation detailed its actions and its added value on the creativity and prototyping aspect, the TETRIS project delegation took part in a lively ideation workshop in the premises of the Innovation Factory. For 2 hours, they worked on identifying good practices from the Lyon academic ecosystem from which they could draw inspiration for their own issues of intellectual property, entrepreneurship or even innovation strategy.

The day ended with a visit to the FabLab of the Fabrique de l'Innovation.
