Eager to develop new recycling sectors from urban WEEE mines, the eco-organization ecosystem created, in 2014, the Urban Mines research and teaching chair, in partnership with the ParisTech foundation and three major schools: Arts and Trades, Chemistry ParisTech and Mines Paris – PSL. This chair was renewed in 2019 and 2024. It is today financed as part of ecosystem sponsorship which has relied since 2022 on the Mines Paris foundation.
