Overview

Multitel is an innovation centre, located in Mons, Belgium. The centre has 20 years of history. It was created in 1995. Two departments of Engineering Faculty of Mons (which became now the University of Mons) had proposed several common projects whose objective was to reinforce the economic development of the province of Hainaut by means of technological development. Those projects were labelled with the name of Multitel, which became the official name of our centre in 1999. That year, Multitel became a non-profit independent research centre. The same year, the Catholic University of Louvain joined Multitel in order to speed up the transfer of its research results to companies. Multitel became a bridge between universities and the industry (transfer of pure research to applied research in order to enhance the exploitation of the research results in companies). On the one hand, it continued receiving financial support from European and regional funds, on the other hand, it has developed its own financial… We own several equipments and laboratories:

1. 1 anechoic chamber
2. 8 laboratories for railway on board equipment testing according to Subset-076
3. 2 laboratories for railway trackside Eurobalise/BTM testing according to Subset-085
4. Cleanroom for photonics
5. Laser micro-manufacturing platform
6. Non-destructive laboratory testing based on Tera Hertz.
