We protect, develop and share alternative technologies for an energy future that is free, open and accessible to all.
The technologies that could change the world are confiscated, patented, smothered. We exist to reverse this dynamic — to protect innovation, to free it, and to pass it on.
Just as Atlas carried the world on his shoulders, we bear the collective responsibility of preserving the discoveries that belong to all of humanity — not to corporations.
Our association is a legal, technical and human shield — an ecosystem where the boldest ideas find protection, resources and community to come to life.
Technological monopolies are not inevitable. They stem from a collective void that we are determined to fill.
Offensive patents block access to essential technologies. Large corporations buy up and bury the innovations that threaten their business models.
Independent inventors lack access to the legal resources needed to protect their discoveries against institutional players and major corporations.
Pooling resources, skills and intellectual property creates a force able to resist confiscation and to keep innovating over time.
Four interdependent pillars that form a complete ecosystem for alternative innovation.
We file and manage patents, trademarks and intellectual property rights on behalf of the association — a shared legal shield against any abusive appropriation.
Technologies validated by our committees are published under free licenses with full documentation. Access to knowledge should not come at a price.
Hands-on workshops, talks and technical training. We are building a network of skills to ensure the longevity of alternative technologies.
An independent technical committee selects and supports promising projects, with access to the association's resources, equipment, network and expertise.
A flexible, credible starting structure. It may evolve into a recognized public-interest body (RUP) as it grows.
Lightweight governance with monthly reports and an annual member vote on strategic direction.
Membership fees, public grants, patronage, incubation revenue and technology licensing for progressive financial independence.
Starting in France with rapid expansion to Quebec. A global ambition for challenges that go beyond national borders.
Your membership doesn't just fund an association — it strengthens a collective shield against the confiscation of innovation. Together, we are stronger.
To be recognized as a public-interest body, our association must reach 1,000 members. Joining today helps us cross this decisive milestone — early-adopter support that truly counts. As a thank-you, the first 1,000 members enjoy the lifetime founding rate: €50/yr instead of €150.
Even without becoming a member, you can contribute directly to protecting and sharing the technologies that belong to humanity.
