This is NCE Micro- and Nanotechnology


Horten, in the county of Vestfold, is the hub of the Norwegian adventure within micro- and nanotechnology. Determination and visionary planning have built the foundation for a unique industry cluster with several succesful companies.

 

The NCE Micro- and Nanotechnology cluster is centered on the production of ICT systems, microsystems and the usage of micro- and nanotechnology (MNT) in miniature. Microsystems are small products that make use of MNT and system technologies which integrate micro sensors, microelectronics and micro actuators. Micro- and nanosystems technology provides new functionality for a multitude of products and enables new product development. Moreover, a range of such items can be produced at lower costs.

 

MNT is one of the world's fastest growing industries. The success of the MNT cluster is largely due to its ability to foresee how micro- and nanotechnology will become integrated in all areas of modern development and everyday life. The technology particularly impacts areas such as medical technology, biotechnology and energy.


 

OUR PURPOSENCE Micro- and Nanotechnology's main objective is to strengthen Norwegian representation in one of the world's fastest growing and most competitive industrial markets.

Norsk Romsenter informerer: utlysning av mulighetsstudier for åpen innovasjon mellom romindustri og annen industri
:: Published: 08.02.2012

Den europeiske romorganisasjonen ESA vil i april 2012 lyse ut midler for mulighetsstudier innen åpen innovasjon. Norge er fullt medlem i ESA, og utlysningen gir norske aktører muligheten til å undersøke hvordan egen teknologi og/eller kompetanse kan utnyttes, og også videreutvikles, i skjæringspunktet mellom egen virksomhet og europeisk romvirksomhet. Studiene finansieres hundre prosent av ESA.

 

Norsk Romsenter arbeider blant annet for å stimulere til økt overføring mellom norsk industri og FoU, og...
