In the knowledge economy networking is a critical success factor for technology based businesses. At Savoie Technolac Science and Technology Park all our activities are designed to catalyse synergies between the higher education, research and business communities sharing the site.
Our goal is to harness the potential of networking in order to foster interaction, exchange and therefore opportunity, helping all our residents and partners to perceive new business ideas and establish new professional relationships.
