1 Grenoble Innovation for Advanced New Technologies W.G. Stirling, CEA/ESRF, Grenoble 1

2 Summary The GIANT partnership The Technology Platform - Grenoble Support for advanced industries Influence of research facilities on competitiveness: Example of the ESRF, Grenoble: Financial, technical and academic fall-out 2

3 A little history: Grenoble has been transformed by science and technology 1956 CEA (CENG) 1962 CNRS 1967 ILL European High Flux Reactor 1988 ESRF European Synchrotron Radiation Facility 2005 MINATEC Micro and Nano-electronics 2009 GIANT Innovation Partnership 3

4 The GIANT Partnership 4

5 The GIANT Partnership: objectives The GIANT partners are working together with a common set of objectives: to respond to major societal challenges; health, information and energy to transcend barriers to create centres of excellence to achieve a major urban transformation by harmonizing urban and scientific development 5

6 The GIANT Partnership: project themes Micro/nano-technologies Micro Nano- Technologies Bio-technologies BioTechnologies Sciences de base Nouvelles Technologies pour l Energie New energy technologies Basic research 6

7 The vision: transcending barriers to create centres of excellence 3 technological centres: MINATEC, GreEn, NanoBio 3 transversal centres: EPN Science Campus (EMBL, ESRF, ILL); Basic research; Technology management EPN Science Campus European large infrastructures MINATEC Information Technology management GreEn Energy NanoBio Health Basic research 7

8 The vision: transcending barriers to create centres of excellence Higher education Technological platforms Industry These centres of excellence bring together research and technological platforms, higher education and industry 8

9 The vision: six centres of excellence - regrouping MINATEC, GreEn, NanoBio EPN Science Campus; basic research; technology management and urban development 9

10 Some key numbers GIANT today researchers industrial jobs students 300 inhabitants GIANT tomorrow researchers industrial jobs students inhabitants visitors annually publications annually 500 patents filed annually 4 billion direct and indirect annual economic impact 50 start-ups launched in past five years 10

11 The model: six centres of excellence Micro and nanoscience, and technology Research and development, prototyping/demonstrators, higher education, industry 11

12 The model: Platform CIME: dedicated to training (1300 students and engineers trained in 2008) PTA: technological platform dedicated to upstream research Characterisation platform (unique in Europe) 12

13 The model: Platform Nanotec 300 Platform MEMS h/24h, 7/7; Industrial Partnerships; Prototyping facilities; Patent portfolio Photos: P. Guillaume 13

14 The vision: Energy storage Production of renewable energy PV, biomass, wind, hydro- Battery Platform Fuel Cell Platform Energy management / network management / energy efficiency PREDIS Platform Photos: P. Guillaume 14

15 The vision: Nanobio Nanomaterials/nanostructures to interface "nano-living" Molecular analysis and imaging Chemistry platform Clinatec Neuroprothesis, neurostimulation systems Systems for localised drug delivery 15

16 The vision: Structural biology at the European level Partnership for Structural Biology (Institut de Biologie Structurale, EMBL, ESRF, ILL ) Infectiology, extreme conditions Proteins and metals: interface biology/chemistry Biology of integrated systems Proteomic platform Cell imaging platform 16

17 A place for companies 20 Toises Polytec II ST Micro Electronics BHT Polytec Energy biomerieux Schneider Siemens BHT MINATEC BBT Bio Bouchayer- Viallet 17

18 The vision: harmonizing urban and scientific development A major urban transformation New tramway, new roads, new apartments, student housing, sports facilities, shops, hotels 18

19 The vision: integrated environmentally-friendly mobility S S S S Contact aérien Contact par sol - with a common card Plug In Induction 19

20 The vision: campus life - a vibrant community environment hotels, restaurants, shops parks and riverside green spaces, leisure activities green mobility, bicycle tracks, tramway family and student housing, shops A green neighbourhood within the city, offering ideal living conditions and architectural excellence 20

21 The Technology Platform - Grenoble CEA/CNRS/ESRF/ILL An example of GIANT cooperation 21

22 The Technology Platform - Grenoble CEA/CNRS/ESRF/ILL ILL, ESRF, CEA (Nano-characterisation Platform, PFNC), CNRS (Institut Néel, LNCMI Grenoble, CRETA) - close together on GIANT campus Unique portfolio of equipment and facilities for (nondestructive) characterisation and analysis of materials and processes - for industrial development of advanced materials Techniques far beyond what is possible in industrial laboratories - major opportunity for industry competitive advance in R&D programmes MoU signed 02/

23 The Technology Platform - Grenoble CEA/CNRS/ESRF/ILL Objectives: To analyse the needs of industrial users in order to identify the best characterisation techniques made available by the partners To make available advanced sample preparation and selection methods so as to optimise the use of instrument beamtime at the large facilities To help the industrial users in their data treatment and interpretation To provide expertise on each problem and on possible solutions 23

24 Influence of research facilities on competitiveness: ex. ESRF/ILL Financial, technical and academic fall-out 24

25 Influence of research facilities on competitiveness Financial fall-out from ILL-ESRF site Site Budget (total income: 2005) ~ 150 M France ~ 37 M (direct) Distributions of salaries (total) ~ 85 M Social charges ~ 25 M (France) Taxes etc ~ 17 M (France) Private expenditure ~ 43 M Injected into local economy ~ 35 M Invested in France ~ 4 M Invested abroad ~ 4 M 25

26 Influence of research facilities on competitiveness Financial fall-out from ILL-ESRF site Purchases: profitable for the local region (ESRF) France: 80% Isère: 44% 26

27 Influence of research facilities on competitiveness Financial fall-out from ILL-ESRF site Employment ~ 1200 posts French staff ~ 64% Other countries ~ 36% Indirect employment ~ posts Other impact 8000 scientists visit ESRF-ILL annually Hotels, restaurants, transport, cinema 27

28 Influence of research facilities on competitiveness Major Technical Involvement in the Rhône-Alpes Region Local high-tech industries benefit from ESRF and ILL Particular technical fields include Precision mechanical engineering Electronics Ultra high vacuum manufacturing Optical systems (mirrors, monochromators, coatings) Software development And low-tech (civil engineering ) 28

29 Influence of research facilities on competitiveness Major Academic and Training Involvement in the Rhône-Alpes Region Local schools and universities benefit from ESRF and ILL Stimulate and reinforce interest in advanced science, engineering and technology Trained technical personnel are economic resource Examples include: Short-term school/university placements and trainees School/university student visits Joint PhD projects Advanced postgraduate courses (Hercules) Joint advanced scientific/technical projects 29

30 GIANT: investing in the future Learning, exploring, creating, living Building a campus of excellence, comparable to ambitious initiatives around the world (Boston, Singapore, Karlsruhe, Lund/Copenhagen ) Attracting the world's best researchers and engineers Making Grenoble a great place to work and live 30
