Research and transfer

logo isvv petitInno’vin is located at the Institut des Sciences de la Vigne et du Vin (ISVV), which allows it to be close to the research sector and the member technology transfer units.
Supporting projects makes it possible to establish contacts and create partnerships that can lead to the promotion of research results. The animation of the network makes it possible to organize meetings between researchers and professionals (sometimes from very different sectors), which allows the promotion of new ideas, potentially applicable in the wine and vine sector.

The Technology Transfer unit of ISVV :
