Strategic Partnership HE-Arc increasingly collaborates with industry partners, evidenced by the Feb 2024 Acrotec Group partnership. This signals open avenues for extended partnerships, co-development projects, and sponsored Ra&D initiatives that could align with Acrotec and similar manufacturers.

Industry Proximity As a tri-cantonal higher education hub with focus areas in Conservation-restoration, Gestion, Ingenierie et Santé, HE-Arc serves industrial, political, academic and institutional sectors. This breadth provides cross-domain sales opportunities for applied research, custom training, and technology transfer.

Ra&D Scale With over 300 applied research and development projects annually and 300+ ongoing initiatives, HE-Arc represents a robust pipeline for contract research, consulting, and service delivery, particularly in engineering, health, and sustainability workflows.

Talent & Training A student body of over 3,000 across bachelor and master programs indicates a large potential customer base for continuing education, executive training, and certificate programs, especially in industry-aligned curricula and upskilling partnerships.

Sustainability & Compliance HE-Arc emphasizes sustainability and transparency, supported by tools like OneTrust and analytics platforms. This positions the school as a potential partner for ESG reporting services, data governance training, and privacy/compliance-focused projects for industry clients.
