Direct peers

• Institut d'Optique Graduate School (IOGS / ParisTech): France's premier specialised higher-education institution for optics and photonics. Directly comparable because both entities train French students in photonics — Branly at secondary/BTS level, IOGS at MSc/engineering level — and feed overlapping photonics employers.
• INSA Lyon: Lyon-based engineering grande école and active Branly partner via 'cordées de la réussite' and apprentice recruitment. Comparable because both educate Lyon-area students for engineering careers and share the same regional talent pool.
• Lycée Galilée (Champigny-sur-Marne): French public lycée that also offers BTS Photonique, alongside other BTS technical tracks. Directly comparable as a peer technical/photonics lycée with similar program architecture.
• IUT Lyon 1: Public technical higher-education institute offering BUT (ex-DUT) programs in electronics, networks and electrical fields. Comparable because it competes for the same post-bac BTS-graduating applicants seeking technical careers in Lyon.
• Lycée La Martinière Monplaisir: Historic Lyon public lycée offering multiple BTS tracks and post-bac programs. Directly comparable as another large technical-oriented lycée serving the same Lyon applicant base.
• Lycée Gustave Eiffel (Paris): Major Paris technical lycée offering CPGE and BTS in energy, electronics and digital fields. Comparable because it serves the same student demographic with equivalent technical bac/BTS/CPGE pathways.

Regional players

• GRETA CFA Lyon Métropole: Lyon adult and apprenticeship training network listed as a Branly partnership partner. Comparable because it competes for the same apprenticeship learners seeking vocational qualifications in similar technical fields.
• CPE Lyon (École Supérieure de Chimie Physique Électronique de Lyon): Lyon-based engineering school focused on chemistry, physics, electronics and digital. Comparable because it trains similar Lyon students in overlapping technical disciplines and draws from the same regional feeder pool.

Broad incumbents

• École Centrale de Lyon: Larger engineering grande école in the Lyon area recruiting from CPGE TSI. Comparable because it is the downstream institution many Branly CPGE students target, operating in the same regional education ecosystem.
