  1. MINOS-EURONET MIcro-NanOSystems EUROpean NETworking pursuing the integration of NMS and ACC in ERA SSA, Priority 2-IST Contract No. 015704, 2005-2008 Project coordinator: IMT-Bucharest, Romania Dan Dascalu (dascalu@imt.ro), Claudia Roman (claudiae@imt.ro)

  2. MINOS-EURONET is devoted to stimulating, encouraging and facilitating the participation of New Member States (NMS) and Associated Candidate Countries (ACC) in IST activities. The project has a pan-European focus on one strategic objective in IST, namely micro- and nanosystems. PROJECT OBJECTIVES: • 1. To reveal and promote the research competences from NMS and ACC, namely competences relevant for the development of micro-nanosystems fieldat European scale. • 2. To facilitate the participation of NMS and ACC organisations to EU programmes and other activities in the field of micro-nanosystems by: • providing specific information through databases and other electronic or conventional means and • b)direct contacts through information and awareness events, as well as through brokerage meetings. • 3. Extensive networking at pan-European scale in micro-nanosystems field, especially by networking the organisations in NMS and ACC with a potential for the future development of the field with the established networks in EU. • 4. Facilitating progress towards building a future research policy and research direction for micro-nanosystems, micro-nano-technology and converging technologies in NMS/AC.

  16. The First MINOS-EURONET Strategy Forumon the impact of converging technologies“High technologies, innovation policy and regional development” at Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Romania (CCIR), Bucharest, 18-19 May, 2006 http://www.minos-euro.net/forum Participants:

  17. The first day was devoted to Research, innovation and competitiveness of Europe.Policies, programmes, initiatives were presented, in the context of the 7th Framework Programme and of the Competitiveness and Innovation Programme of the EU. The experience of NMS and ACC in RTDI strategies and programmes, including technology transfer and innovation was also presented. “Al. I. Cuza” Hall (CCIR) during the Forum A poster exhibition was available during the first day. The posters displayed info about participation to EU programmes, national and regional infrastructures for research and innovation etc. Supplementary information was available in a package of printed documents (in English) distributed to the participants. The second day of the Forum was devoted to the potential of integrating/converging technologies (micro-nano-bio-info) for economic growth. Examples of applications were given (at this event there is no particular focus on a certain field). The output of the foresight exercise performed in Romania provided the basis for a “case study”.

  18. 157 Romanian participants and 27 foreign participants (including 3 representatives of the European Commission) attended the event. Timothy Harper, Cientifica, UK Gisele Roesems, Unit of nanoelectronics, Directorate Components and Systems, INFSO/G, EC Dr. Stephan Pascall, Advisor, Information Society and Media Directorate- General, EC Griet Van Caenghem, Unit Micro- and Nanosystems, Directorate Components and Systems, INFSO/G, EC Brochures containing information from the databases for specialists and research centres working in the MNT field were distributed to the FORUM attendants. The event was complex, involving aspects related to infrastructures and applications of micro and nanotechnologies, presenting a vast experience both from Western and Eastern countries. The conclusions were used indirectly by Romanian participants in preparing the motivation for a priority called “Nanoelectronics, photonics and micro-nanosystems” in the new national R&D plan. The Forum provided an excellent background and motivation for the participation of officials and specialists to eventsdedicated to technology transfer and European technology platforms.
