Our Culture of Innovation
Since 1966, Groupe Grimaud companies have been using emerging new technologies in their animal breeding programs.
In 2011, this scheme of development has been strengthened by launching a distinctive innovation approach, similar to the technological developments used in other fields such as human health (medical imaging), mobility (electric motors), energy (renewable energies), telephony (with the smartphones), etc... Still using the support of our existing tools, we opted to value and adapt tools coming from other sectors to our activities. This is why Groupe Grimaud qualifies its policy of innovation as "GeneTech by Grimaud" or Distinctive Innovation.
