NanoNed
Dutch nanotechnology research initiative
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
NanoNed is the nanotechnology research and development initiative of the Dutch government.. It is financed Ministry of Economic Affairs (Netherlands).Dutch Technology Foundation STW is responsible for the program management of NanoNed . It is a consortium of seven universities, TNO and Philips. University of Leiden, University of Utrecht and FOM institute AMOLF in Amsterdam are also the partners of NanoNed . Around 400 researchers are working within all these partners. On the basis of national research and development strengths and industrial needs, 11 interdependent programmes were developed and named “flagships”. Each of these flagships is led by a "Flagship Captain". In 2009, more than 400 researchers were working on around 200 projects.The programme ran from 2004 until 2010 as part of the Dutch government’s investments in nanotechnology research infrastructure.[1]
NanoNed also established its first foreign office in Japan (NanoNed Japan Office), led by Prof. Wilfred van der Wiel..
