From research to industry
IFP places research and industrial innovation at the heart of its scientific strategy, in all its activities:
- the application of fundamental research, recognized in 2005 by the Nobel Prize in Chemistry awarded to Yves Chauvin, former Director of Research at IFP,
- the creation of a large international company quoted on the stock exchanges of Paris and New York - Technip,
-
technological support for SMEs (Small and Medium-sized Enterprises), spin-offs and participation in investment funds.
Technological transfers to all types of enterprises
IFP has over a long period created many ways of transferring technology in order to develop the value of its research and development on the industrial scale.
One of the original features of this approach is support for or participation in projects that concern not only large industrial corporations but also SMEs and start-ups.
IFP's technologies, dedicated to the oil and automobile industries, cover all stages of the production and use of petroleum products.
Partnerships serving the energies of tomorrow
IFP's commitment to developing the industrial value of its research results enables its researchers to judge their work against the requirements of the world of industry and the market. They can constantly adapt their programs to the needs of businesses.
IFP contributes to the competitiveness of businesses in a context of sometimes exacerbated competition, especially in the automotive sector. This collaboration between research and industry favors the emergence of the innovations of tomorrow. The objective is to take up the challenges of the energy transition as they affect transportation, chemicals, and the environment.
