Télécom Paris is an engineering school, founding member of Institut Polytechnique de Paris and a member of the Institut Mines-Télécom, a top-ranked public institution of higher education in the French Grandes Ecoles tradition under the trusteeship of the Ministry for Economy and Finance.
“As a top engineering school, putting interdisciplinary and rigorous research as a priority, we are delighted to become a Partner of JEDI”, said Nicolas Glady, Director General of Télécom Paris. “Télécom Paris has sixteen teaching and research chairs, and spin-offs around three start-ups each month. By supporting but also benefiting from JEDI’s European deeptech ecosystem, the largest of its kind in Europe, we aim at boosting our leadership even more and contributing to Europe’s strategic autonomy in R&D.”
André Loesekrug-Pietri, Chairman & Scientific Director of JEDI, added “Télécom Paris’s crossdisciplinary fields, from Cyber-Physical Systems to Data Science & AI, have a lot to gain from the twenty moonshot programs that JEDI is currently working on. We are delighted to have Télécom’s top scientists and researchers participate in our programs and potentially become our Program Managers – the key success factor for any disruptive agency that has the ambition to be as performing as the US DARPA. Together, we are a step further towards European technology leadership”.
