Research and Development

The conurbation of Lyon is one to discover; a pleasant city to live and work in. Proud of its museographic and cultural heritage, recognized worldwide for its architectural qualities (the historic center of Lyon is classified a Unesco World Heritage site), Lyon offers an excellent quality of life (gastronomy, close to nature) in a metropolitan area on a European, yet human scale.
