Résumé

Encouraged by public authorities, higher education institutions are evolving to fos-ter a culture of innovation across the regions. An examination of practices at the international and national levels reveals a growing trend towards the creation of innovation platforms designed to promote the generation of knowledge and expe-rience within spaces for collective experimentation, utilising design thinking. These platforms are structured around multidisciplinary teams, dedicated spaces for innovation and implementation, and ‘user-centric’ methods specific to the emergence of user-driven innovations. To shed light on this phenomenon, which is relatively recent in France and little discussed in the literature, we conducted exploratory research aimed at identifying the organisational resources essential to the design of innovation platforms, adopt-ing an empirical and comparative approach
