Thales and Toulouse III - Paul Sabatier University have extended their framework agreement for a further five years. The two partners share the same passion for advanced research and have been working together under this strategic arrangement since 2011. The signing ceremony was held today at Thales's head office in Paris La D fense.
Thales needs to consolidate its technology leadership in the face of tough competition in each of its five key markets. Teams from Thales and Toulouse III - Paul Sabatier University are conducting advanced research in physics, chemistry, materials science, algorithms, modelling and software and have a shared ambition to develop the innovations that will create value for customers and users in the future.
The formal agreement signed today marks the continuation of a strategy that has proved highly effective over the years and has brought tangible benefits to both partners in areas as diverse as satellite communications, ionosphere modelling and multi-material additive manufacturing.
To develop technology demonstrators and new products based on their research findings, Thales and Toulouse III - Paul Sabatier University share a dynamic approach to intellectual property and are co-owners of several joint patents.
Working hand-in-hand with an academic research partner such as Toulouse III - Paul Sabatier University brings us access to highly specialised talent and resources and gives us the competitive advantage we need to drive business growth.
Marko Erman, Chief Technology Officer, Thales The University is keen to foster closer ties with industry and the local authorities. We want to demonstrate that the University is a dynamic force in the region by pursuing innovative training and research projects, building effective partnerships, fostering an entrepreneurial culture and supporting the local startup ecosystem.
