Fabienne Windels

I am a trained civil engineer, and over the years I have specialised in technology watch and information services that both fulfil Sirris’ in-house needs and especially help companies to get to know their technological environment and be able to anticipate changes. This watch activity comprises both a generic service (numerous publications such as discovery reports, summaries, roadmaps and conferences), as well as a service providing companies with tailor-made studies.

For the past 15 years, this activity has also covered intellectual property. I coordinate Sirris’ Patent Cell, which offers services ranging from giving advice to developing and supporting a comprehensive innovation process. Furthermore, I consider patent information to be just one of many vital technology and competition watch tools.

More recently, I incorporated the Corporate Development team, which predominantly aims to help companies to detect trends, opportunities and limitations that may dictate their innovation choices and to direct Sirris towards the technological solutions that may help the industry to deal with these issues.

Thanks to the many projects that I have led with companies and academic services throughout my career, as well as my participation in market studies, I can answer such questions as “Who does what?” or “Where do I find…?” and thus put people on the right path to the right solutions.
