Our SCIC
Governance based on the Social and Solidarity Economy
By joining SCIC NOBATEK, our partners become part of a network that includes both public and private entities, all united by common values and a commitment to building a sustainable future. They primarily benefit from our expertise and extensive networks, which help them develop their innovations in the building industry and local neighborhoods.
Our partners have the opportunity to build and test their solutions through their own projects or collaborative initiatives at regional, national, and European levels.
Additionally, they gain exclusive access to the results of applied research produced by the SCIC. Partners also have a say in determining the strategic directions and key technological developments at the institute.
The NOBATEK SCIC encompasses various stakeholders in the sector, organized into seven equally weighted colleges, along with our employees.
As of January 1, 2025, the SCIC has 87 members, consisting of 36 individuals (including 23 employees) and 51 local authorities, companies, research centers, and universities.
Dominique Thomasson, the Chairman of COVERIS, has been leading the SCIC since January 2017.
