Four innovation centres-Teaching and training;-The sea;-The wind;-The population.
Innovation in international cooperation. Collegia
o Integrated and multidisciplinary approach to community-based intervention; 80% of the expertise comes from the overseas partner;
o Overseas expertise has been the benefactor of previous projects;o 20 % of expertise is provided by Collegia, especially in new or specialist

International recognitionGroupe Collegia received the Prix d’excellence Africa 2013 : for supporting women entrepreneurs in Africa
Centre for innovation in aquculture and fisheries of Québec Merinov
(centre d’innovation de l’acquaculture et des pêches du Québec Merinov)
An example of a recent research project
The innovative development of a kite designed specifically to provide traction for a fishing vessel, which results in the reduction of power necessary for propulsion.
Once optimised, the system will provide a fuel economy of 20%. For a fishing vessel this represents a saving of 20 000 litres of fuel per year, and the emission of 50 tons less of greenhouse gases(GHG).
TechnoCentre éolien (Wind Power Centre)
