Nanoinitiative Bayern GmbH
The Nanoinitiative Bayern GmbH is responsible for the management of the network institution “Cluster Nanotechnologie” in Bavaria / Germany which has been initiated by the Bavarian State Government in 2006.
The main objective of the ‘Cluster Nanotechnologie’ is the further development of a nanotechnology competence network in order to support an efficient transfer of scientific results into industrial applications. For this purpose, it is essential to closely link the research, industrial and teaching sectors. Primary target groups are enterprises with application potential for nanotechnologies, with a special focus on small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), universities, universities of applied sciences and public research institutes.
The network association Nanonetz Bayern e.V., whose members have already performed considerable basic work to further develop the leading role of the Bavarian industry via the application of nanotechnolgies, acts as a platform for the Cluster Nanotechnologie.
Major competences of the Cluster Nanotechnologie:
· Promotion of cooperations between R&D institutions and operators in the industry
· Support of application-oriented research
· International marketing of research
· Project application and management
· Organisation of seminars and workshops with regard to nanotechnology
