The theme of the event will be transfer of knowledge from the
research base to industrial application, so there will be a strong
emphasis on how innovation value-chains deliver the benefits of
nanomaterials.
Scope

The conference will address
The European and Global Dimension
Horizon 2020, Europe’s largest programme
supporting industrial update of emerging
technology solutions in nanotechnology states
that the:
‘Seamless integration of technologies
and processing for using nanomaterials
in production; to improve the control and
monitoring of the conditions required for the
use of nanomaterials in industrial processes;
to increase the level of robustness and
repeatability of such industrial processes;
to optimise and evaluate the increased
performance and functionality of the product
as well as that of the production line in
terms of productivity in actual operational
environment…. represent critical steps
before committing to pilot production.
