The origin of PUI CY Transfer
CY Alliance's proposal, put forward by CYU through CY Transfer and 3 other founding members
CY Cergy Paris University, through CY Transfer, has been labeled on behalf of CY Alliance and with 3 other founding members (CNRS, CEREMA and SATT ERGANEO), University of Innovation (PUI). PIUs aim to bring about the emergence at national level of some 20 poles designed to speed up the territorial dynamics of innovation, and are financed under France 2030.
The proposed project capitalizes on the innovation ecosystem of CY Alliance and its partners (communautés d'agglomerations, département, région Ile-de-France, poles of competitiveness, innovation agencies, economic development actors, companies...) and on all its strengths, including its multidisciplinary research potential in response to societal and environmental transitions and its student entrepreneurship dynamic.
It can be found through a whole range of coordinated actions, ranging from training and development to business development and project support, in order to meet the expectations of innovators and users: researchers and companies.
CY Transfer and its partners have been labeled as part of a seed phase and will initially be financed to the tune of €2.5 million (of the 6 million requested for the project).
