The enhancement of the Human and Social Sciences, a unique characteristic, unique to the PUI CY Transfer.

In its strategy, the PUI CY Transfer has a special interest in the Human and Social Sciences: it is on its territory the operator of their socio-economic development. The PUI CY Transfer links SHS researchers to the concrete needs of local actors. Work on societal issues – whether social innovation, education, urban dynamics or digital transformation – is echoed in partnerships with communities, businesses and associations.


The mission of SHS is to ensure that the knowledge and expertise produced within the university is fully exploited to meet contemporary challenges.

The meeting app between researchers and innovators !

With Konekti, you have an application (web and mobile) for matching, which allows you to connect the laboratory staff of PII establishments (researchers, engineers, etc.) with the industrialists.

The objective: a simpler and faster contact between the academic world and companies.
