Research AND INNOVATION

Innovation takes stamina

Creating value means making a difference on people and the planet. It’s not about going after everything but focusing with intensity on a compelling experience that starts as a new idea/thinking or business model then going to broader adoption. R&I defines Intelligent Industry by designing for the ubiquitous digital, optimizing in an increasingly complex value chain and targeting breakthroughs in environmental sustainability.

We explore the future of industries with 7 research and innovation programs

Our research and innovation programs are business accelerators that help clients with high-intensity R&D to reveal the value of incremental and disruptive technologies by pioneering engagements built around recognizable assets. Clients go further, faster and to places they would not necessarily go alone.​

Future of mobility

Accelerate the future of flight, multi-modal transport, shared mobility and last mile logistics by realizing the vision of safer, collaborative and autonomous vehicles for sustainable urban super cities

Future of networks and Compute

Eliminate the constraints on compute, network and storage for the next generation of immersive experiences and look forward to the final frontier of the space economy

Future of healthcare

Develop technology platforms for pharmacogenomics, digital therapeutics and predictive medicine that revolutionize the way we cure & treat disease considering variability in genes, lifestyles and response to therapies

Future of sustainability

Acting to accelerate the transition towards sustainable Industries by building end-to-end science-based solutions that help monitor, mitigate and adapt to climate change all the while meeting long-term human and societal needs

Future of energy

Optimize energy consumption and make solutions smarter, supporting the energy transition in its different components

Future of engineering

Disrupt the way we innovate on products and protect the planet by taking into account parameter complexity, autonomous systems, everything-as-a-service & systems of systems

Future of applied AI

Thoughtfully apply data science and machine learning technologies to scale industry-specific problems in precision medicine, autonomous systems, aerospace simulations and industrial automation

Our University strategic research partnerships

Strategic University program

Our experts team up with leading academics for 3-5 year projects

At Capgemini Engineering, we look to the future, to what is next on the horizon of our clients….

That’s why we have created the Capgemini Engineering Strategic University program with the primary objective to invest with world-class universities to produce high quality research outputs.

These are deeply collaborative projects where Capgemini Engineering experts work alongside leading academics to contribute to the advancement of engineering in a 3-5 year research horizon.

Each program contributes to an overall  strategic framework which is structured to answer the key question “What are the key challenges of a more intelligent industry in our society?”. The answer is designed to emerge from three research themes:

  • Disrupting Engineering by looking for new paradigms in process, architecture and computing.
  • Accelerating sustainability by driving for the break-through of sustainable technologies to achieve mass adoption or new areas of application
  • Mastering complexity to ensure that ever more complex systems can be modelled, understood and trusted.

The universities with whom we have partnerships are recognized for their excellence in research and for their commitment to corporate social responsibility.
