Pivotal to IFPEN's development policy, the IFP Group brings together leading industrial players worldwide and young innovative companies. The scale and reputation of these players, as well as the promising potential and dynamism of the latter, testify to the ability of this development policy to create value and jobs.

The subsidiaries are linked to IFPEN by research and licensing agreements, with IFPEN retaining industrial property rights to its results. Agreements set the scope of the collaborative work in compliance with European Union rules. As such, the relationship between IFPEN and its subsidiaries follows business rules, similar to rules governing license agreements with companies that are not part of the Group.

The IFP Group represents 4,500 jobs, 350 of which have been created over the past five years.
