Résumé : This article analyses the conditions under which the valorisation of research can be an opportunity for small
and medium-sized universities. We present and discuss the indicators traditionally used to assess this activity and show
that they correspond to an approach exclusively focused on research, conducted in an environment favourable to close
relations between universities and enterprises. In order to take advantage of this third mission, we consider, based on the organic square of research valorisation, that this activity should be observed in a more systemic way, taking the
interactions between teaching and research missions into account, as well as a set of internal and external factors that
highlight the possible margins for action. We thus illustrate the strategy that can be implemented in less endowed
universities, aiming to build innovation ecosystems favourable to attractiveness, based on the experience of the
Université du Littoral Côte d’Opale (France).
