The objective is to help decision-makers in positioning and developing their business in a particular field of research and in setting up scientific and technological partnerships. Our greatest strength lies in our dual science/business culture: we have the resources to analyse leading-edge information in scientific publications and discuss it with international specialists, then match the scientific and technological results of our research to market requirements and competitors' developments. The diversity of our fields of activity fuels the creativity of the options we put forward, and our experience in project organization enables us to work through to operational results.
ALCIMED carries out three types of assignments in the R&D field. The first is to draw up the state of the art of academic research, of competitors' developments and intellectual property. The second is to identify technologies and partnerships, through a process of evaluation leading to integration. Last is the formulation of research strategies and their formal translation into research projects, coupled with implementation follow-up.
