ChemStart'up

A platform dedicated

to innovative chemistry start-ups

In 2011, the Lacq‑Orthez Community of Municipalities launched the Chemstart’Up platform project. Its objective was to provide an environment conducive to the development of start‑ups in the field of chemistry. Since its creation in 2011, this technology transfer platform has undergone four extensions to accommodate new semi‑industrial activities. As the operator of the platform, GIP Chemparc is planning a further extension of Chemstart’Up to welcome new high‑potential companies.
