Over the course of two days of intensive work, the 14 international experts serving on the Board engaged with IP Paris teams to discuss the institution's key scientific and strategic directions. The program included discussion sessions with the Executive Committee, meetings with researchers, and several site visits across the Palaiseau campus.

The discussions provided an opportunity to review IP Paris's academic strategy in two major fields: quantum technology and digital sciences. Several sessions were dedicated to cybersecurity and robotics challenges, with the participation of researchers working in these areas. Members of the ISAB were also introduced to the innovation strategy driven by the Institute.
