10 highlights

07 February 2024 /

As Euronovia celebrates its 10th anniversary this year, it’s a good time to look back at 10 highlights of the past decade:

  1. Creation: On 7 February 2014, Euronovia was officially launched in the 14th arrondissement of Paris.
  2. First contract: Euronovia signs its first contract with the Fondation de Coopération Scientifique Paris-Saclay, a prefiguration of the University, in the heart of France’s Silicon Valley.
  3. First framework contract: In early 2015, the Université Fédérale de Toulouse calls us to support the grant application of European projects. We take our first steps in Toulouse.
  4. Joining the Association des Conseils en Innovation (ACI): Euronovia enters the big league and joins the association in 2015, becoming involved over the years by co-leading the Collaborative Projects Commission and then sitting on the Board.
  5. First team: Euronovia recruits its first employee in March 2015 in the Pyrenees mountains. Two others will arrive at the end of 2015, in Toulouse and Paris. The Paris / South-West axis is confirmed.
  6. First project won as a partner: Euronovia is a partner in the ORC-PLUS solar energy project. Euronovia travels across Europe and Morocco, in charge of communication, dissemination, and exploitation.
  7. Partnership with WILCO: in 2016, Euronovia enters into a partnership with Europe’s largest startup accelerator. We support innovative projects, from the therapeutic potential of cannabis thanks to plant biotechnology, to finned, electric, propellerless boat engines replacing combustion engines. The unicorns of tomorrow.
  8. Creation of the European Association of Innovation Councils (EAIC): the Association will see the light of day in 2020. Euronovia is one of the founding members, to defend the profession and exchange with its peers.
  9. In 2019, the team is renewed: An office opens in Toulouse, followed by Bordeaux and Bayonne. The team expands, success rates climb, and we become recognised players in France and Europe.
