Research plays a central role in the industrial value chain and in the innovation showcased at Global Industrie. Through its Research Area, the exhibition highlights public and private laboratories developing cutting-edge technologies and expertise, ready to be tested in real industrial environments.
These laboratories increasingly seek collaboration with industrial SMEs capable of industrialising, testing and deploying their innovations. In parallel, SMEs look for scientific partners to accelerate projects, raise technology readiness levels and anticipate market disruption. The Global Industrie Research Area directly addresses this strategic challenge by fostering practical collaboration between research and industry.
Industrial innovation depends not only on research itself, but on its ability to translate into real-world applications. Clusters and support organisations also play a key role in the creation of deeptech startups, contributing to the renewal and dynamism of the industrial ecosystem.
By bringing together laboratories, SMEs, startups and support stakeholders, the Research Area positions Global Industrie as a catalyst for innovation — supporting a more competitive, agile and forward-looking industry.
