OUR PARTNERS

UV Boosting is a pioneer in the use of UV flashes as a substitute for fungicides and is the expert of plants’ stimulations through the technology already developed

Université de Bordeaux is specialized in measuring the impact of the UV solution on plant defense system and in evaluating the impact of the innovative solution on the surrounding environment.

Université de Toulouse is among the world leaders in the domain of Science and Technology of Light Sources and their expertise in the project covers the evaluation and characterization of UV sources.
