France partnered with India to launch the India-France ATL Bridge, a pioneering initiative designed to connect school innovation ecosystems and encourage collaboration among young innovators from both countries. Announced during the India-France Year of Innovation 2026, the program promotes creativity, entrepreneurship, and technological learning through innovation labs inspired by India's Atal Tinkering Labs model. A significant outcome of the partnership is the establishment of the first School Innovation Lab in France based on the ATL framework. The initiative also supports student exchanges, joint innovation projects, and cross-cultural learning, strengthening bilateral cooperation in education, technology, innovation, and entrepreneurship between the two nations.
