The New Nano-Enabled Products S3 Partnership aims to address the challenge of bringing nano-enabled products from prototype to production by developing joint demonstration cases that promote collaboration and the development of new value chains linking regional innovation ecosystems.
The partnership is currently developing four demo cases covering various nanotechnological fields with applications in multiple industrial sectors, including advanced materials, printed electronics, medical devices, clean technology, food safety, and automotive. The first demo case simplifies the development of nano-enabled bio-sensor applications through lab-on-chip technology platform modules. The second demo case integrates functionally printed structures onto 3D objects using new fabrication processes.
The third demo case deploys MEMS technology for integrating analytical functional nanomaterials in miniaturized sensing systems and aims to extend its use to many industrial and consumer products. The fourth demo case integrates flexible micro/nano electronics within composite parts during manufacturing by digital printing and innovative mounting approaches and creates a network of manufacturers for new product fabrication.
Year established: 2015
The mission is to facilitate cross-border cooperation among businesses, academia, and research institutions to develop innovative nano-enabled products and services with high TRL. This will be achieved by connecting and further developing open and business-driven facilities for pilot production of nano-enabled materials, systems, and products. By promoting the development of new value chains that integrate nanotechnology into various industrial sectors, the pilot aims to address the challenges of bringing these new products and services to the market and accelerate the industrial modernisation of the European Union
The key objective is to boost the existing inter-regional value chains as well as create new ones to bring micro and nanotechnology-enabled products or manufacturing processes successfully into the market. In doing so, valuable connections between science and industry can be created or strengthened. The potential market opportunity of micro-technologies (e.g., microfluidics, microelectronics) is huge and since these technologies are often applied in combination with nano-enabled products, the pilot will admit and support demo-case collaborations and projects in this field.
Other objectives are:
Innovative materials; advanced manufacturing; KETs
