Located in Rhône Alpes, the Orange Labs in Meylan opened in 1983, in the "Technopole
Innovallée", near Grenoble. It set up numerous contacts with the world of research, industry,
and universities,
and developed close cooperation with local and regional associations and institutions. It
also integrates two remote sites in Sophia Antipolis and Turbie in
the Alpes Maritimes region.
The telecommunications domain remains at the heart of the group's innovative
approach to research and development. In this context, the Meylan site continues
this tradition by imagining the products and services of tomorrow.
With 40% of French public research in telecoms located in Brittany, research
is a major element of regional dynamics. Dynamics in which the group is participating
actively through its Orange Labs network and its Rennes location.
It contributes actively to the development of international standardisation work
to better respond to the requirements of the integrated operator.
The Lannion centre was set up in Brittany in 1963, giving birth to ANTICIPA, the technopole
in Trégor. The Brittany site developed rapidly and contributed actively, with
its many and fundamental innovations, to tackling France's challenges in the telecommunications
field. Today, the Lannion labs, members of the Orange Labs network, are key players
in the development of new services and the development of new innovative commercial
offers for Orange customers.
For its first forty years of existence, the Lannion centre was the source of
major innovations opening the way to large sectors of new telecommunications technologies
and usages. The Lannion site, remains at the heart of the group's priorities and
is still active in every field, from networks to customer services. Open towards
the outside , it is developing its relations with many partners, in particular
European, from the university and industrial worlds and welcomes each year nearly
a hundred graduate students.
