Support research valorization initatives in the PSL ecosystem: from idea to socioeconomic impact
The PSL Innovation Hub supports research valorization initiatives from laboratories within the PSL ecosystem: Université PSL, CNRS, Inria, and Inserm.
Valorization involves transferring innovative results from public laboratories into the socioeconomic sphere to maximize the tangible impact of science on real-life situations.
Discover research valorization:
► Portraits of researchers who have valorized
► What is the journey from the lab to socioeconomic impact?
► Available courses to support your journey
From idea to project:
► Discuss my idea
► Evaluate the potential of my idea
► Protect my idea with intellectual property
► Funding to valorize my research results
From project to socioeconomic impact:
