Aivancity and ENS Lyon are embarking on a research collaboration as part of Hugo Hadjur's PhD thesis in computer science on "the design of sustainable, autonomous, low-energy connected systems." This thesis is supervised by Laurent Lefevre (PhD and HDR), INRIA research fellow at ENS Lyon, and is co-supervised by Lefevre and Doreid Ammar (PhD), professor and academic director at aivancity.

A leading school for over 30 years, ESITC Paris trains civil engineers who are recognized by players in the construction sector. Founded in 1992, EESPIG-certified, recognized by the French government, and accredited by the CTI, it offers five-year programs after high school or three-year programs after two or three years of higher education. Its teaching methods, closely linked to industry, prepare engineers for roles in design, production, operations, and management. The school is a member of UGEI and CDEFI.

ESTP is an EESPIG engineering school, accredited by the CTI and a member of the Conférence des Grandes Écoles. Founded in 1891, it has 45,000 graduates and trains 3,000 students and 1,000 professionals each year, making it the leading French school dedicated to careers in construction, infrastructure, development, real estate, and energy efficiency.

This partnership aims to develop cross-disciplinary training programs in artificial intelligence and data management using a responsible and ethical approach, serving businesses and society in Tunisia and, more broadly, across the African continent. This collaboration also offers ESB students opportunities for mobility and dual degrees with aivancity.

The partnership agreement with EPF, which is moving to Cachan in 2021, provides for numerous areas of collaboration, including representation of EPF by its Director on the aivancity Board, the pooling of resources and teaching spaces, a dual degree, joint research programs and projects, joint corporate events, a joint Industry 4.0 incubator project, and more.

Avancity Paris-Cachan and Excelia are developing an academic partnership based on their complementary disciplines and locations. Under their agreement, the schools are rolling out avancity courses as part of Excelia Business School's international BBA program at the avancity site in Cachan and/or remotely. This collaboration also aims to offer students a learning package consisting of Excelia's BBA and an aivancity MSc.

"This partnership with ISART embodies our shared vision of the future, where artificial intelligence and creativity come together to push the boundaries of video games. AI is profoundly transforming the gaming industry, whether by optimizing development processes, enhancing immersive experiences, or enriching narrative interactions. Together, aivancity and ISART are paving the way for a new generation of creators who will be able to fully exploit the potential of these technologies to imagine the interactive and responsible worlds of tomorrow."

According to Pierre Ihmle, Chief Academic Officer at Sommet Education: "The digitization of service is a real need in the hotel industry. In any technological development, the concept of ethics is essential; people must remain at the center. aivancity is therefore the ideal partner to develop this certificate, thanks to their expertise in artificial intelligence, but also because of their keen awareness of the ethical impact of AI on our society."

De Montfort University Leicester (DMU) is a vibrant, dynamic, and forward-thinking global university, built on academic excellence, graduate careers, and local and international impact and collaboration that extend into university life and studies.

The International Observatory on the Societal Impacts of AI and Digital Technology is a forum for discussion and reflection for all stakeholders involved in artificial intelligence (AI), its development, and its use. The Observatory brings together more than 160 researchers to maximize the positive effects of AI and minimize its negative impacts.

Osteobio is the oldest school of osteopathy offering full-time post-baccalaureate training, founded in 1988. Recognized for its scientifically validated curriculum and research focus, it trains versatile osteopaths and develops partnerships with laboratories and large companies.

"Understanding, utilizing, and mastering AI and data are strategic challenges for accounting and auditing firms, whose business model will no longer be based on producing and reviewing financial statements, but on their ability to support SME managers in all aspects of their business development. This will necessarily involve their ability to use artificial intelligence to analyze the data that passes through their information systems and to return it to their clients with added value, particularly human value." - Julien TOKARZ, President of Sup'Expertise
