This network represents 1% of the French academic researchers (150 teams, 1600 physicians, researchers, and PhDs) and accounts for 1.6% of the publications, 4.3% of the TOP 1% most cited papers, and 7% of the Nature & Science papers in France. FPGG initiates interdisciplinary, inter-institutional programs at the chemistry/physics/biology/medicine interface with an objective of generating innovative breakthroughs for global Health Care. It characterizes by the rapid decision processes of its Steering Committee that enable the initiation of risk-taking projects within 2 months. As an integrated part of its business model FPGG also facilitates the setting up of industrial joint-research agreements focused on Small and Medium Enterprises. An innovative marketing strategy, leveraging the French Research Tax Credit has allowed €3.2m of successful contracts within 2 years and paved the way toward sustainability. Recently 3 successful applications from FPGG added €18m to its original €20m funding. This will enable the establishment of a 4000m^2 Institute Pierre-Gilles de Gennes for Microfluidics that aims to create a unique technological platform for fast prototyping of lab-on-chip applications.
