The Hub aims to provide a one-stop-shop for all matters and concerns pertaining to sustainable high-tech innovation and its successful incorporation into the complex, large-scale high-value industries by bringing together governmental and academic laboratories with large industries and SMEs.

A registered Secretariat at the Hub’s centre will provide an accountable, economically sustainable executive.

The Launch Event, which was held as a special session at the ‘SUSNANOFAB – NanofabNet Joint Networking Event’ in Braga (Portugal), 5th – 7th July 2022, saw presentations by the NanoFabNet expert team, highlighting the results of the past two years of their work, during which both the challenges and opportunities in the combined disciplines of sustainability and micro- & nanofabrication were analysed and detailed strategies and actions plans devised. The NanoFabNet Hub aims to bring together these two disciplines and encourage more cross-disciplinary collaborations and cooperations in sustainable high-tech research and innovation (R&I).
