This year, the Rendez-vous Carnot event is launching a new opportunity for ambitious companies looking to tackle tomorrow’s major challenges.
Organized in partnership with Bpifrance, this competition is aimed at innovative PME and start-ups developing disruptive solutions in strategic sectors. Leading industry players invite them to take on a business challenge designed to accelerate connections and pave the way for mutually beneficial collaborations.

The LabCom PI Gaz, a collaboration between Air Liquide and LRGP (Carnot Icéel), has been renewed until 2028. A long-term scientific partnership focused on industrial gas modelling.

This year, Viva Technology will take place from June 11 to 14 at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles. The Carnot Network will showcase 16 start-up selected for the impact of their solutions in the fields of healthcare, AI, Industry 4.0, mobility, and energy.

WOODSTIC explores a new frontier: transforming wood into a thermoplastic material without fossil-based polymers. An innovative, sustainable and patented alternative!

The start-up is the result of an intercarnot AIDAV project (Innovative Approaches for the Detection of Respiratory Virus Agents in Cattle) between Carnot France Futur Élevage and CEA LETI. AIDAV is based on the detection of respiratory viruses in the exhaled air of cattle. CEA-Leti developed an innovative method that led to the creation of nawu diagnostics—a start-up offering a fast, non-invasive diagnostic tool for livestock.

On 12 and 13 June 2025, CEA-List is organising its flagship event, bringing together more than 500 players and decision-makers (from industry, science, academia and institutions) to focus on two key themes: accelerating the development of technological innovations and bringing them to market, and anticipating the integration of disruptive technologies into companies’ innovation strategies. The Carnot Network is a partner of this event.
