Altran Launches Season 3 of its International Innovation Contest
PARIS, November 28, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
The i Project (i for innovation) is the name of the Altran group's international
innovation contest, which grants EUR100,000 to each laureate project.
This in-house collaborative innovation programme challenges the Group's 22,000
Innovation Makers[1], and aims to promote internal research and innovation by way of a
competition open to all employees, whatever their profession, industry or country of
operation. Candidates submit to a jury a proposal for a useful go-to-market innovation, in
the form of a concept or prototype.

Since its creation in 2013, THE i PROJECT has already rewarded 11 innovative
collaborative projects conceived by transnational teams. From green energy management to
connected clothing, not to mention augmented reality, the first two seasons of this
programme led Altran to explore a new approach to management. THE i PROJECT encourages
personal initiative, promotes teamwork, and offers employees the opportunity to imagine
and develop a concept that inspires them.
"Following from the success of the first two seasons, with over 700 candidates, 170
submissions and a total of more than EUR1 million in financing awarded to the laureates to
develop their projects, THE i PROJECT has established itself as an innovation driver
within the Altran group. It is a perfect illustration of the Group's desire to provide its
clients with high value-added solutions in every field where innovation counts", explains
Pascal Brier, Executive Vice-President of the Altran group.
Like in the previous two seasons, the most innovative projects will each receive
EUR100,000 in financial support to complement and enhance their pioneering potential,
ultimately transforming them into economic realities to best meet the needs of Group
clients.
A look back on THE i PROJECT season 2
Season 2 of THE i PROJECT shed the spotlight on six particularly high-quality and
innovative projects. They were chosen from among the submissions for their ingenious
nature, perfectly in line with the expectations of the programme:
