The Institute for Advanced Studies provides an inspirational setting for intellectual innovation. The Institute takes as its mission to bring together internationally renowned scholars, writers and innovators from many different countries and working in many different disciplines. These fellows, temporarily freed from their normal professional obligations, can pursue their studies in a spectacular building overlooking the Loire River. The fellows can work on their projects either individually or collectively.

The main purpose of the Nantes Institute for Advanced Studies is to create a new type of relationship between Western scholars and those from the rest of the world. By encouraging the latter to offer their viewpoints we hope to achieve a true diversity of approaches to current problems posed by globalization.
