Martin, Commissariat à l Energie Atomique, Saclay CILEX-APOLLON Scientific Director French ELI co-representative (*) (*) Special thank to Patrizio Anticci F. Amiranoff : Director P. Audebert : Technical Director P. Monot : deputy Technical Director F. Mathieu : Project Manager

2 History of CILEX-APOLLON goes with ELI 2005: Idea of an Extreme Light Infrastructure (ELI) by G. Mourou 2007: ELI enters PP and ESFRI roadmap 2007: APOLLON becomes a 10 PW laser project with 20 M state invesment 2010 : CILEX gets approved with 20 M as integrator of APOLLON 2010: CILEX/APOLLON implemented at l Orme 2010: ELI-PP Gives over to ELI-NP/ELI-ALPS/ELI- BEAMS ? ELI-ALPS
