How isInria research organised in France, Europe and abroad?
The 171 project-teams are distributed in eight research centres located throughout France. Inria is therefore in close proximity with its academic partners (more than 45 universities, French “grandes écoles” and other research bodies) and is invested in local innovation initiatives.
The institute maintains special relations with its European partners: it is a founding member of the European Research Consortium for Informatics and Mathematics, and it coordinates the French section of the EIT ICT Labs network dedicated to developing the Internet of the future. Two Inria project teams span international boundaries (Netherlands, Italy).
Inria is a partner of several academic institutions in the United States, Asia, Latin America, Africa and the Middle East. It has a joint laboratory with the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, as well as with the Chinese Academy of Sciences. It actively supports African IT research.
Inria has 71 associate teams with research centers in 28 countries.
