When we speak of innovation in the
composite industry, we usually mean
technical innovation. We identify it all
along the value chain and bring it to
the fore, whether it is in the field of raw
materials or converting processes or
new applications. But innovation can
take on other aspects. JEC operates in
the service sector, where innovation
sometimes takes the form of marketing
new relational concepts and practices.

At JEC, we would like to work towards
more involvement. Our goal is to bring
these different players together. We have
been working on a "Golden Triangle"
concept, which consists of bringing the
three worlds of research, industry, and
institutions together under the same
roof and organizing exchange. This
concept will be applied for the first
time at JEC Asia Seoul (1-3 November
2017), where composite players from
all countries can experiment with this
Everywhere in the world where new type of three-way dialogue.
JEC operates, we have observed
the different sectors - academic, Although we won't see the application
industrial, or institutional - and each of the concept before November, we can
one develops its own dynamics. And already take the measure of one of the
so research events where scientists first results of our innovation initiative:
