MSDAVENIR
Dr Golriz PAHLAVAN – Chairman of the Scientific Advisory Board
“With a budget of 1.2 million euros, MSDAVENIR – France’s leading fund for supporting research in the life sciences – has decided to provide major support for the ICONIC project led by the ICAN IHU, in association with Inserm. This combination of cardiac and liver imaging and epidemiology will produce unique population data including young adults: a world first! Since 2015, MSD’s ambition has been to create synergies between the public and private sectors and to support researchers to encourage the emergence of innovations to benefit patients. ICONIC is a perfect illustration of MSD’s desire to support the most innovative research projects, to build the medicine of tomorrow and showcase the excellence of French research.”
Bouygues Group
Pierre AUBERGER – Central Communications Director, Bouygues Group
“As a patron of the arts, Bouygues is delighted to support the PEGASE project, launched by the ICAN IHU and led by cardiac surgeon Guillaume Lebreton, whose aim is to increase the number of heart transplants thanks to an ex-vivo perfusion device that preserves the heart until transplantation. Bouygues’ donation in 2023 made it possible to launch this project with a first heart transplant in January 2024 at the Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital, which went well, opening up other prospects linked to the prolonged preservation of vital organs.”
BIOTRONIK

” BIOTRONIK , a family-owned European company, was founded by two students at Berlin University.

Passionate about education, BIOTRONIK understands the importance of supporting university medical projects. That’ s why it has been supporting the ICAN Foundation for several years now
Sicame Endowment Fund
Nadine VALET – Vice-President Sicame Group
“Medical research very quickly became an obvious choice for the Sicame Endowment Fund. We had to make our contribution, even if it was modest compared with the scale of the research programmes. We see this as an opportunity to provide experts and researchers with the technological and scientific resources they need to bring about advances in health that will benefit us all. Our meeting with the men and women of the IHU-ICAN was inspiring and reinforced our commitment to sponsorship. It’s all about being those invisible people who support medical research over the long term
