Innovation
Innovation only makes sense if it is produced, shared and disseminated. This is why Université Côte d'Azur offers collaboration platforms for the worlds of research, industry and markets. To support innovation initiatives, Université Côte d’Azur provides the resources and diversified skills of all its stakeholders and contributes to building ties between the public and private sectors.
