A family story

Interscience is a family owned company that invests all its profits in the society, particularly in research and development.
Founded in June 2015, Affinité is a spin-off of the Université de Montréal that assembles a strong team of experts in chemistry, entrepreneurs and engineers. Affinité’s main technological expertise lies in surface plasmon resonance (SPR), a real-time monitoring method for sensing applications.

The vision of a human and innovative company

Driven by the spirit of enterprise and passionate about industrial creation, François Jalenques, a French physicist and entrepreneur, founded Interscience in 1979.

His ambition: create products of excellent quality, expand internationally and offer great services. First, he promoted the innovative Spiral method that automates the routine work of bacterial enumeration.

His model is also social. François Jalenques decides to set up his business in the heart of Cantal, cradle of his family origins, to revitalize industrial life in a deserted area.
