3IA Côte d'Azur is a research and training institute in artificial intelligence located in Valbonne, coordinated by the Université Côte d'Azur. Since its inception, it has established itself as a key player in the French and international artificial intelligence (AI) ecosystem. This institute, one of the four interdisciplinary artificial intelligence institutes created under the National Strategy for Artificial Intelligence (SNIA), stands out for its interdisciplinary approach and collaborations with major academic and industrial partners.
3IA Côte d'Azur specializes in two major areas: health and smart and secure territories. In health, the institute works on projects that apply AI to medical research, particularly in radiology and cardiac resynchronization therapy. It also explores the use of AI for developing error correction models in medical diagnostics.
In the field of smart territories, 3IA Côte d'Azur focuses on the application of AI to improve the security and management of territories. It is also concerned with issues of sustainable AI and data ethics, thus addressing current challenges of sustainability and personal data security.
Recently, 3IA Côte d'Azur was involved in organizing the SophI.A Summit, a major international event that brings together AI experts from various fields. This summit is an essential platform for knowledge exchange and the development of international collaborations. In 2025, the launch of the "3IA Côte d'Azur 2030" cluster marked a key milestone in expanding its scope, with a funding of 20 million euros over five years, aimed at strengthening research, innovation, education, and dissemination of AI.
The institute has also established AI training programs, ranging from undergraduate to doctoral levels, in collaboration with technology companies in the Sophia Antipolis region. These programs aim to train future AI experts capable of tackling tomorrow's technological and societal challenges.
3IA Côte d'Azur occupies a central position in the French technological ecosystem. As the only AI cluster in the South Region, it plays a crucial role in strengthening France's national strategy for scientific excellence, aiming to become a global leader in AI. The institute is recognized for its scientific excellence and its driving role in AI innovation, attracting top researchers and companies on an international scale.
One of the most significant recent developments for 3IA Côte d'Azur is the extension of its research and training projects under the second phase of the SNIA, supported by France 2030. This phase aims to enhance the dissemination of AI in the economy, with a particular focus on trustworthy AI, frugal AI, and embedded AI. The institute continues to collaborate with local and international partners to advance AI research and its practical applications in various sectors.
In conclusion, 3IA Côte d'Azur positions itself as a pillar of innovation in artificial intelligence in France, with an influence that extends well beyond national borders. Through its continuous efforts in research, training, and collaboration, the institute actively contributes to the technological and economic transformation driven by AI.
Les 3IA, ou Instituts Interdisciplinaires d'Intelligence Artificielle, sont des centres d'excellence en France qui se concentrent sur la recherche, l'enseignement et l'innovation dans le domaine de l'intelligence artificielle. Ils visent à rassembler des chercheurs, des enseignants et des entreprises pour développer des technologies d'IA avancées et pour former la prochaine génération de spécialistes de l'IA.
En France, quatre 3IA ont été créés, et non pas trois comme le suggère leur nom. Ces 4 3IA sont :
