The MINAM platform acts as THE exchange forum and knowledge hub for the topics of industrial micro and nano manufacturing. It has extended the already existing cross-sectoral micro and nanomanufacturing community (over 600 members from 36 countries) with the most relevant European, national and regional initiatives, such as European clusters, Networks of Excellence and European Technology Platforms in order to create a harmonized application-oriented approach to reach & maintain industrial leadership. The MINAM Strategic Research Agenda defines upcoming key challenges and research priorities for all involved stakeholders in an integrated and condensed manner.
