In 20 years, 200 patents, 936 scientific contributions and 100 researchers trained: these are the impressive results of the public/private partnership between IEMN and STMicroelectronics.

This partnership combines the industrial strength and innovation of STMicroelectronics in the mass production of microelectronic and photonic components with the flexibility and agility of IEMN in exploring new concepts, materials, and processes. Several generations of researchers have also been trained in this context. They now work at ST in the R&D and product divisions, spreading the knowledge they have acquired together on an even larger scale.

Formalized in a joint laboratory in 2003, this partnership has generated significant technological innovations in the fields of telecommunications, miniaturization of electronic and photonic systems, and healthcare.

A five-year renewal of research activities.

During VivaTech, the joint lab was renewed for five years. Much more than an administrative formality, this renewal embodies a shared vision for the years ahead and demonstrates a constant drive to evolve and adapt to current technological challenges. It ensures the continuity of investments, promotes the recruitment and training of PhD students and engineers, and intensifies national and European collaborative projects.

This new phase also aims to strengthen the joint laboratory’s activities among the general public and to establish sustainable development objectives in line with STMicroelectronics’ advanced policy.
