European partnerships
Europe is a strategic territory for the international development of companies. For that reason, Lyonbiopole is now part of several European networks.
The pole is partner of a European project, the Alps Bio Cluster project. More recently, a collaboration agreement (MoU) have been signed with the BioIndustry Park Silvano Fumero, an Italian science park but also the managing company of the biotech and medtech cluster in Piedmont: BioPmed.
Eager to be more involved in the development of European clusters in 2010, Lyonbiopole has joined the CEBR (Council of European Bioregion), a network of organizations (clusters, incubators and science parks, ...) involved in the development of bio clusters at European level. First network of its kind, the CEBR aims to develop and implement new activities to support Biotechs across Europe.
Lyonbiopole leads a European scientific network on biomedical systemic approaches applied to vaccines, biotherapies and diagnostics.
The network of partners is constituted by the following regions:
> Amsterdam, Netherlands
> East Midlands
> Luxembourg
> Munich
> Stockholm, Sweden

« As part of its mission to support the economic development of SMBs, Lyonbiopole's staff is mobilized to ensure the success of this daylong event dedicated to funding. The event, which featured roundtable discussions and presentations, allowed for interactive dialog between the participants, the aim being to promote contacts between managers of SMBs and private and institutional investors. The strengthening of SMBs' equity is an essential condition to set up increasingly ambitious R&D projects, for their competitiveness worldwide and for their credibility in the eyes of major industrial groups. »
