Altran Foundation for Innovation

Its mission is to "Promote technological innovation for human benefit". Since its creation, it has achieved its mission by organising an annual technological innovation award.

Competence sponsorship, a different commitment reflecting the Altran expertise

Altran primarily focuses on what we call competence sponsorship: the Group offers the laureate the chance to work with a team of specialist engineers. Whatever the field, these experts are capable of satisfying all the needs of the project: an Altran commitment in perfect harmony with its capacities.

Give the Altran professions meaning and visibility

The work of the Foundation is essential in highlighting the diversity and quality of the competences that can be found within the Group. By supporting the implementation of ambitious technological innovation projects benefiting society as a whole, the Foundation gives meaning and visibility to what Altran can do for its customers and what its 15,000 consultants achieve every day.

A new international prize in 2012

This year, the international award re-invents itself and grows in scope. Eight national competitions are hold (Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, United Kingdom). They will be followed by an international event in early 2013. Altran supports this development which will provide even greater impetus and support for technological innovation initiatives serving the general interest
