New challenges for the French research strategy :
- restore the competitiveness of the French economy : • in high-technology sectors (in strong sectors such as aerospace, transportation, space,
nuclear ...) and new sectors such as ICT, software, biotech…• but also traditional sectors (like food industry, luxury industry, tourism ...)
- meet environmental and societal challenges : • energetic transition• natural resource management• aging populations• …
Evolution of the weight of industry in the economy: 22% to 10% between 1970 and 2011
Context in France
Knowledge transfer to businesses is at the heart of the innovation capacity of a country
OECD puts knowledge transfer between research actors and companies at the center of national innovation systems.
OECD Reviews of innovation Policy : France 2014 – P18
Business creation is a key element of innovation.France has many strengths, but the development is still low
Company creation or entrepreneurship play a fundamental role in the productive dynamics of modern economies.
In France : Over the past 15 years, important effort for simplification for starting businesses with a strong public support (including tax advantages…) Strong entrepreneurial dynamics : France shows a good
dynamic, as Germany or the USA, though she was positioned among the latest countries late 1990s.
but a great weakness persists : an inability to grow these innovative companies, highlighted by all the studies conducted on business creation in France
Brakes to the growth of innovative businesses (according to the OECD)- Often, a niche positioning - Often, a scientific logic privileged instead of an economical approach- A regulatory framework that does not support growth (threshold effect)
CEA : A leading position in technological researchto support the emergence of an industrial chain and businesses

patents filings

Business creation at CEAContext and objectives
One of the CEA missionsis to transfer
its technologies to industries ...
This action should resultin the creation of
wealth and / or national employment
2 mains schemes of TT : - an existing company- a company to create
(start-up creation)
One of the KIP of the agreement with the state: "Number of companies created from technologies developed by CEA"
Target : 25 start-ups created in 4 years (2010-2013)* 6 / 7 companies created each year
The next agreement (2016-2019) is currently under discussion.

How to develop entrepreneurship among researchers ?
- organisés chaque 1er jeudi du mois sur le centre
- permettent d’échanger sur les différents aspects de la création d’entreprise
- invitations via la boîte mail.
promote awareness as regards entrepreneurship among researchers (promotion day for entrepreneurship, meeting with professional business creation team...)
dedicated training for entrepreneurship: business plan development, marketing training…
importance to combine different profiles / skills within the team that will create a start-up (manager, financial, commercial, ... and of course scientists)
| PAGE 18I Rivat - Direction de la Valorisation
key factors of success
Develop a comprehensive support system since the 1st day, from the idea / the project, up to financing rounds. The aid may include support to find public funding to leverage.
Agree to license its IP exclusively in a specified area, often in return for a minimum of R & D partnership.
CEA is a founding member of the company, on clear and ethical rules, ROI being addressed directly to the laboratory "parent" of the technology.
Being able to go to the "proof of concept stage" and even prototyping in its laboratories
Team: presence of holders attached to CEA’s values and with a real ambition.
Fews examples of KPI (Key performance indicators)
Overall investment grade rating (from RTO, State …) before creation of the start-up – (With use of a discount rate that corresponds to the cost of capital).
Number of start-up created over a period of time
Share in the equity capital of a company
Number of employees in start-ups
Mortality and casualty rates on societies
Turn over – including business figure in the international market
Acquiring rate of start-up, redemption rates and age of the start-up
