Institut de l’Information Scientifique et Technique [INIST]

Rayward

I think that’s interesting, because my sense is that INIST, Institut de l’Information Scientifique et Technique, has a rather different focus.

Dusoulier

Now. But that was not the purpose of its creation. The purpose was to become a European center, in fact. We can have a look at it.

The goal was: “La confirmation de transfer à Nancy. Où la préparation de l’organigramme du futur institut. Afin que celui-ci paisse répondre aux impératifs d’innovation, de productivité, de commercialisation. Tout en évoluant avec les techniques nouvelles.”

Commercialization

Rayward

So this is, in a sense, the new bit, the commercialization?

Dusoulier

The commercialization goal is new. This is why we thought — la création d’une filiale de commercialisation. So that we could better sell what we were doing. You know, the goal was la création d’un INIST en ordre de constituer un pôle national, de production et de diffusion de l’information scientifique et technique spécialisé à l’intention de la recherche dans les entreprises.
