"Facilitating exchanges between companies and research centers leverages the economic development of a region. AEPI is playing an active role in this partnership policy with specific strategic regions of the world. It was not by chance that we made the decision to engage ourselves within CORA, a talented partner in Colorado, a state which shares a significant number of similarities with the Rhône-Alpes region" - Alain Cottalorda, president of AEPI
"This visit [October 2009] is fully in line with the international strategy of the TENERRDIS cluster, whose objective is to network with the best laboratories in the world (in the United States of course, but also in Japan and the United Kingdom, as well). TENERRDIS, the cluster of reference for new energy technologies, and NREL, reference laboratory in this domain, are confirming today their willingness to further cooperate at a technological scale. It is an unprecedented event for TENERRDIS, which, having pioneered the cluster's international development, is helping the cluster to reap the benefits of its strategy today"
-Claude Graff, chairman of TENERRDIS and Executive VP, Renewable Energies at Schneider Electric
“The visits to Colorado [March 2009] by representatives of TENERRDIS and the Grenoble-Isère research institutions highlighted the many research, industry and environmental values that our regions share. We are very pleased to bring leaders of Colorado's clean energy community here to France to continue this dialogue. This busy week [October 2009] of formal and informal discussions among research and industrial leaders of both communities will chart a course to a future of cooperative research that will serve both nations and the world at large”
- David Hiller, Director of the Colorado Renewable Energy Collaboratory, a research consortium of NREL and three universities
The Colorado International Trade Office was pleased to assist the French delegation [March 17-19, 2009] with introductions to potential Colorado business and research partners and State officials involved in the renewable energy and clean tech sectors. It is partnerships with organizations such as the French American Chamber of Commerce and CORA that help us leverage resources for the benefit of Colorado’s economy and businesses”
- Pam Reichert, ITO Director
