Neyrpic est un ancien groupe industriel grenoblois de fabrication de grands équipements hydrauliques et mécaniques, notamment de turbines et de téléphériques, établi sur les communes de Grenoble (site Beauvert) et Saint-Martin-d'Hères (site Croix-Rouge). De 1900 jusqu'aux années 1960 l'entreprise a évolué, au gré de multiples rachats et réorganisations, d'une entreprise familiale traditionnelle vers un groupe industriel d'importance locale, jusqu'à son rachat par des grands groupes internationaux, Alsthom puis General Electric.2 From the French Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0
