Scientific Research and Innovation

As part of its responsibility for preparing for the world of tomorrow and developing future technologies and systems for the Armed Forces, the DGA changed its set-up in 2005 and created the MRIS (Mission for Scientific Research and Innovation), whose primary missions are the following:

  strengthen defence research activities in science and basic technologies
  put forth a science policy for defence
  renew the synergies with the spheres of industrial and academic research
  identify and mobilise the required resources

The end results of these missions are:
  to keep abreast of new developments
  to know and make known what the defence needs are
  to direct policy and provide support for developments that benefit defence interests
