The Plateau de Saclay, also called Silicon Valley Européenne (in English, European Silicon Valley),〔''Magazine-Entreprendre N *249'' April 2011〕 is located north of Essonne and south-east of Yvelines, 20 km south of Paris. It is bounded by the valley of the Yvette (''Vallée de Chevreuse'') to the south and east, and the valley of the Bièvre to the north.〔(Quid du projet de "Silicon Valley" à la française sur le plateau de Saclay ? )〕 It hosts world-class universities, engineering and management schools and research centers, such as Université Paris-Sud, École Polytechnique, HEC, ENSTA ParisTech, Supelec, IOGS, IHES, CEA, Inria, Danone research center, one Thales research facility, and national scientific instruments such as the SOLEIL synchrotron and the NeuroSpin Project. In order to create an even more attractive campus, other engineering schools and high-value centers are planned: EDF headquarters, Agro ParisTech, Telecom ParisTech, ENSAE ParisTech, and Centrale Paris for instance. == Geography == The plateau is located at about 165 meters. It is traversed by ditches that drain water. These works, as well as the ''étang de Saclay'', located near the town of Saclay, were intended to supply water of Versailles Castle (and in particular its fountains). It corresponds to the following municipalities: Gif-sur-Yvette (Moulon district), Orsay, Palaiseau, Saclay, Saint-Aubin, Vauhallan, Villiers-le-Bâcle in the department of Essonne, Toussus-le-Noble, Châteaufort, Les Loges-en-Josas and Buc in Yvelines. The southern part is called ''plateau de Moulon''. It extends to the new town of Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines (''plateau de Villaroy''). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Plateau de Saclay」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
