Ship-ST - Rethinking uses and technologies to reduce ecological impact

"I recommend G.A.C. Group for the quality of their services. I had the opportunity to observe their added values: the adaptability of the facilitators on the format, the reformulations established on scientific subjects to liberate speech, their structuring methodology leaving room for creativity, their regular piloting."

Ship-ST is an SME specializing in naval architecture.

IFREMER (Institut Français de Recherche pour l'Exploitation de la Mer) has selected the company to design the oceanographic vessel of the future.
