The launch of the first Interactive Digital Center (IDC) in France has been announced. IDC France aims at becoming the leading institute for developing simulation-based learning applications for the industrial and educational domains. Although the grand opening ceremony is scheduled in October, the IDC is now fully operating and engineers are already working on the first projects. IDC France is located in Clermont-Ferrand, right in the center of France, with air, train and motorway connections to all main cities in France. Clermont-Ferrand hosts various competitive clusters, including biotechnologies, information technologies, mechanical industries and medical research, which will all be heavy users of the IDC resources.
“This Interactive Digital Center based on a public-private partnership is a unique opportunity to provide our local economic system with a state-of-the-art interactive 3D platform. It will benefit not only our industries but also our educational institutions, at the regional and national levels.” said Pierre-Charles Romond, Vice President of Clermont-Ferrand University.
