SAFRAN, ISAE-SUPAERO AND THE ISAE-SUPAERO FOUNDATION SIGN A SPONSORSHIP AGREEMENT FOR THE CREATION OF THE INNOVATION CHAIR.

The signing took place at ISAE-SUPAERO, in the presence of Eric Dalbiès, SAFRAN Group Vice President, Strategy, RT and Innovation, Yannick Bonnaire, SAFRAN Group SVP Innovation, François-Xavier Hussenet, Director – Innovation Develoment SAFRAN, Marie-Hélène Baroux, Director General of ISAE-SUPAERO and Agnès Trincal (representing Stéphane Albernhe), Director of the ISAE-SUPAERO Foundation.

The Innovation Chair, signed for a period of 3 years, will enable ISAE-SUPAERO to further develop its relationship with SAFRAN through activities focusing on 3 areas:

  • Support for the development of training excellence in innovation, entrepreneurship and intrapreneurship
  • Helping young entrepreneurs connect with experts
  • Start-up support for young ISAE-SUPAERO graduates with an entrepreneurial project

The Foundation is delighted that this signature inaugurates a new collaboration with SAFRAN, based on a shared vision of training tomorrow’s innovative engineers. In addition to accelerating ISAE-SUPAERO’s innovation dynamic, the Chair has an important social dimension, notably through scholarships that support young people embarking on the entrepreneurial adventure by covering part of their living expenses. “Agnès Trincal, Director of the ISAE-SUPAERO Foundation.
