A business-centred platform of excellence for innovation in chemistry and health

The objective is to provide regional companies with access to a unique, state-of-the-art nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) platform, to meet the needs in key and structuring areas of the Region (chemistry and health) for research, development and innovation projects. The project will strengthen all the material resources, skills and services present at the NMRN. 3 axes: 1) strengthening the platform’s equipment to improve performance and maintain its excellent positioning; 2) increasing access to the platform for businesses by simplifying procedures; 3) the setting up of awareness-raising, communication and training activities by presenting new opportunities by the NMR. Supported by competitiveness clusters (Axelera and Lyonbiopôle), research institutes (Bioaster, Canceropôle Clara) and a circle of companies in the Region, the project will contribute to improving the platform’s visibility among regional socio-economic actors, its integration into the innovation ecosystem and technology transfer. The expected results involve an increase in partnerships with enterprises (SMEs/MIPs), patent filing, job creation and start-ups in the region and allow financial autonomy of the facility at the end of the project.
