Five themes thought with and for business
Centrale Lyon’s offer has been created with companies and for companies. It comprises five themes: employer brand, education, research and innovation, facilities and patronage.
École Centrale de Lyon offers a number of very important actions based on these five themes. Those actions provide companies with flexible, dynamic support and the institute’s rich resources in the advancement of innovation. The company can develop a part of its innovation at École Centrale de Lyon through the use of projects and challenges based on innovation and creativity directed at students (employer brand), seminars and round tables organised at the institute (education), technology surveillance conducted by research personnel or the hosting of start-ups (research & innovation), access to our platforms (facilities) and backing for training equipment (patronage).
