Genes’Ink, a company specialized in the design and the manufacture of nanosolutions in the printed electronics markets, and the French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission (CEA), through the Laboratory of Innovation in Surface Chemistry and Nanoscience’s (LICSeN) of the UMR NIMBE (Nanoscience’s and Innovation for Materials, Biomedicine and Energy), signed a partnership agreement creating a joint research laboratory.
Agreed for a renewable term of three years, this collaboration aims to develop new technologies dedicated to printed electronics, mainly in conductive and semi-conductive materials. The LICSeN brings complementary knowledge to those of Genes’Ink in terms of surface chemistry and interface that will allow Genes’Ink to increase the development of innovative solutions like flexible batteries.
“The creation of the joint laboratory by signature of this contract brings a real added value to Genes’Ink,” said Alain Lunati, president of Genes’Ink. “It concretizes the first nine months of a full and total collaboration between Genes’Ink shareholders and the CEA. The setting-up of this joint laboratory is in continuity of the PriMe project (ANR program), based on a solid partnership between the CEA and Genes’Ink, driven by Corinne Versini since almost a year, and of which she will manage the coordination as well as the one of the joint laboratory.”
“This partnership is the conclusion of many years of research done at the LICSeN on various innovating processes on surface functionalization and their application to the polymer’s metallization,” Serge Palacin, research director at CEA, director of the UMR Nanoscience’s and Innovation for Materials, Biomedicine and Energy (NIMBE) and member of the Laboratory of Innovation in Surface Chemistry and Nanoscience’s (LICSeN), said. “This will allow the LICSeN to concretize one more time its works by useful and valuable realizations, and to enrich itself of new scientific and technical problematics in contact of our industrial partner Genes’Ink.”
