Thanks to a lecture by Frédérique Le Greves, President of STMicroelectronics France, students were invited to consider the strategic role of semiconductors, which have become essential to our digital societies. By addressing the industrial, economic, and geopolitical challenges facing the sector, this presentation highlighted how technological choices are now inextricably linked to issues of sovereignty, resilience, and collective responsibility.
A concrete example of useful innovation
This idea took shape with the discovery of Vision4Rescue, a concept car developed by the Software République consortium. Designed to improve the efficiency of emergency services, this project illustrates how technological innovation, when developed collaboratively, can address major human challenges and contribute directly to protecting populations.
Discussions held throughout the day with STMicroelectronics teams, particularly at the career stands, enabled students to envision careers in which engineers are technical experts, industrial players, and engaged citizens, aware of the societal impact of their choices.
Vision4Rescue is an innovative concept car designed to put technology at the service of emergency responders. The result of a unique collaboration between Software République, the French Fire Department, and four other partners, this project brings together an ecosystem of 20 interconnected solutions. Together, they aim to break down traditional technological silos in order to significantly improve the efficiency and coordination of emergency response operations.
