About the IE-Club :
The IE-Club is a partnership grouping created in 2000 which brings together innovative SMEs of the ITech Economy(1) and the players in the innovation ecosystem (investors, large enterprises, public bodies and research centres) in order to encourage the development of lasting relations by identifying and disseminating the best concrete examples of fruitful partnerships. As a resolutely pragmatic group, the IE-Club observes the synergies which are established between innovative SMEs and the other major players in their ecosystem, identifies the most value-creating activities, and acts as a proponent of these good practices during the regular main meetings of the relevant parties.
