People who have already chosen Savoie Technolac Science and Technology Park, what they say:

Hartmut Kuehn
CEO, IBC SOLAR:

"Savoie Technolac is a recognized participant in the construction of France's solar energy sector, and is at the heart of the TENNERDIS competitiveness cluster. This is why IBC SOLAR, a pioneer and innovator in the photovoltaic sector for over 25 years, has chosen to set up in the Park. Here the company can share its experience and be part of the decision-making process in the solar energy sector. Our base in Savoie Technolac allows us to create new synergies and collaborate on development projects with local businesses and research institutes, such as the National Institute for Solar Energy (INES) and the Institute for the Development of Industrial Projects (IDPI), both based in the park".

Carmen De Jong

Professor and Research Manager at The Mountain Institute of the University of Savoie, President of Cryospheric Sciences at the European Geosciences Union (EGU):

“I have been at Savoie Technolac since September 2006. I am a Professor and research manager at the recently created Mountain Institute of the University of Savoie. The Mountain Institute forms an interdisciplinary European centre of scientific excellence, and is a platform of exchange between national and international teams as well as a crossroads between science and action. It is locally and regionally well integrated with stakeholders. Its international openness is particularly important for me. I came here from Germany with my husband and two children. I decided to come here because the new job presented a fascinating challenge within a unique institute with no equivalent elsewhere in Europe. The particular attractiveness of Savoie Technolac is its concentration of diverse University departments and other interesting organisations and institutes, such as MDP, GIP Grand Lac, EDF, INES, Chamber of Commerce, Ecole Supérieure de Commerce and small enterprises operating in the imagery and electronic field. There are also amenities such as printing services, a choice of cafés and restaurants, a sports hall and a wide range of sports activities on the site. Savoie Technolac is calm and very green, and it even appeared in a Geographical Journal in Germany as one of the most exemplary campuses in France.”

Philippe Le Berre
CEO, Entelience (specializing in Information Systems Security) :

"Entelience provides information system security solutions and Savoie-Technolac is perfectly located to allow us to address the French & Swiss market and grow internationally  - with two international aiports and 3 highspeed train station at less than 1 hour drive - whilst allowing our staff and their family to enjoy a wonderful lifestyle and thus attract and retain talents from all over Europe."

Dr. Jens Merten

Head of the Laboratory for Solar Systems (LSS), National Institute for Solar Energy (INES):

"Why am I at INES, at Savoie Technolac?: - Well, to contribute to and to participate in the dynamic growth of INES; - for the excitement and challenge of setting up a research lab; - to carry out the research I have always dreamed of; - and to bring my ten years of experience in the field to the strategic development of research into solar energy systems."

Cyril Laurent
Manager, ALCiiP:

"Our company’s business project was accepted by Savoie Technolac in 2001, which meant we could set up in "La Base", the well known incubator located on the Park.

Within a few weeks we were able to move into fully equipped offices and start taking advantage of the opportunities offered by being located in a dynamic Science and Technology Park.

Our company focuses on providing our clients with comprehensive and innovative solutions to their Internet applications’ requirements, and we take pride in providing solutions perfectly adapted to need.

Of course, ALCiiP eventually left its "nest" and our company is now in its 6th year. We have gained the confidence of numerous demanding local customers, including Savoie Technolac for the past 4 years, our average annual growth is of more than 60%, and our team of about fifteen developers can today provide expertise in a variety of web specializations.
The ALCiiP project is ‘to be continued’.”

Roumen Kaltchev,

Its high-quality Information and Communication Technologies infrastructure and excellent transport connections through Geneva airport make Savoie Technolac Science and Technology Park the perfect location for us and our partners from around the world."
