Assess the innovation potential of your research results

Are you a researcher, professor or student researcher who has uncovered promising results that could shape the future?

Axelys’ experts are here to support you at each stage of the development process, so that your research results can shine and generate maximum impact on society.

We transform your research results so that they are deployed to a stakeholder such as a company or a public sector organization.

Several types of research results can be valued, such as:

A physical technology, a molecule, a process
A software, product, intervention, program or service
A guide, method, kit or process
A literary or artistic work

Axelys is involved in all areas of public research, such as life sciences, health, engineering, humanities, social sciences, art and literature.

Talk to us about your research results

To start a project for the development and transfer of technological, human, or social innovation, we provide you with a simplified form consisting of a few key questions that allow us to quickly assess the potential value of your research work.

The Report Potential Innovation (RPI) form is intended to provide a quick initial analysis, without waiting for a complete invention disclosure (ID) to be filed, which will be requested at a later stage if the potential is confirmed.

In other words, it is a pre-selection tool designed to:

identify projects with the best prospects for generating impact at an earlier stage;
accelerate exchanges between research teams and Axelys and easily explore avenues for commercialization;
effectively guide joint development and transfer trajectories.

Do you have a project and want to know its potential? Report it now in just a few clicks using our SIP form available on our website.
