PRIMES
Primes (Plateforme de Recherche et d’Innovation en Mécatronique, Énergie et Systèmes - Mecatronics, Energy and Systems Research and Innovation Platform) promotes and networks players in the power integration, mecatronics and energy management sector by bringing public research laboratories and private companies together at a single location using design, simulation, prototyping, profiling and test methods.
This innovation platform aims to promote exchanges and joint ventures between public research and industry around integrating power and mecatronics (the synergistic combination of mechanics, electronics and real-time information technology) with systems and energy management.
The Primes strategy revolves around the dual aim of promoting R&D projects and regional development.
