Research centres
Research at the leading edge
The CRP Henri Tudor, named after the Luxembourg inventor of the lead acid battery, supports technological innovation in the private and public sectors and ensures that the technology is transferred as necessary. It also advises and supports companies in technological issues, and offers basic and further training. The future home of the research centre is to be in the ”House of Innovation“ as well as elsewhere.
The public research institute CRP Gabriel Lippmann (named after the Luxembourg winner of the Nobel Prize for Physics) deals with the technology of new materials and the sustainable management of natural resources and information technologies. Its new home will be on the blast furnace terrace in the ”House of Green Biology“ and ”House of Materials“.
CEPS/INSTEAD, the multidisciplinary and multinational International Network for Studies in Technology, Environment, Alternatives and Development, is based in the BIL building. Its research focuses on population and employment; geography and development, and companies and industrial organisations. It will relocate to the ”House of Humanities“ when the building is completed.
