A cross-institutes service including 20 persons has been set up in 2008 by Agropolis International to allow an easier access to the scientific community competences and help all the protagonists (visitors, organisers, host laboratories, etc.) involved in the organisation and building up of interinstitutional visits.

This service offers:

 

• assistance to visitors who get in touch with a single contact person in charge of identifying the relevant fields and persons in each institution in order to draw up a programme meeting their expectations. Assistance may also be provided for hotel booking, transport information, etc;
• assistance to the researchers of the scientific community who can delegate a visit request and rely on a network that allows them to offer a broader programme including the various competences available within the Agropolis International community;
• visits report and follow up, through a database available on intranet for the
  Agropolis International community.
  

The list of visits 2008/2011 is available to Agropolis International members having access to the shared intranet.

Steps to be followed

Get in touch with Agropolis International and send a request as accurate as possible, at least 1 month before the visit with the following information:

• Name and address of your institution, positions of the visitors
• Purpose of the visit, needs and expectations
• Themes of interest, pre-existing contacts (people, institution)
• Specify if it is the first time you come to Montpellier and if it is not the case, indicate the people and institutions already met
• Preferred language (French, English or Spanish)
• Forecasted arrival and departure dates and times
  

You will receive the final program at least 3 days before your visit.
