CIRAD is a French research performing organisation in agriculture, working in cooperation with tropical and Mediterranean countries. Innovations resulting from this collaborative research have sometimes been licensed to EU and/or non-EU SMEs. On other occasions, innovations have been directly spinned off for an access to the market.

What they argued
CIRAD welcomes the upcoming Commission ERA ACT, aiming at reinforcing integration of R&D at the EU level, free circulation of researchers and knowledge, international outreach of EU science and innovation, translation of R&I into the global market and EU capacity to attract talents and investments. Tackling existing barriers in interdisciplinary, intersectoral and international cooperation is a worthy objective.
The European regulation has succeeded in its objective in that it has made it possible to deconsolidate the need for compliance on the part of European users. It leads them to be more vigilant about the utilisation of genetic resources and compliance with national regulations of countries party to the Nagoya Protocol. The Regulation makes it essential to exercise due diligence in the context of a research project.
