Green and Resilient Europe: What role for nano-enabled industries?

Project description

Towards a greener and sustainable EU

Nanotechnology and advanced materials play a pivotal role in the future of the EU. They positively impact on the devices, machinery and services we use in our daily lives. Advanced materials can also help to accelerate the transition to greener technologies, provide a more sustainable future and contribute to the goals of the European Green Deal. EuroNanoForum 2021, an EU-funded project, is a coordination action to prepare and support the EuroNanoForum 2021 conference which aims to address the role of nano-enabled industries in the drive towards a green and resilient Europe. The event will bring together experts from different sectors to share their experience and insights on the topic and identify policy options and priorities.

Objective

Nanotechnology and Advanced Materials play a major role in our daily life as they guarantee the functioning, long term durability, safety, and environmental compatibility of many devices, machinery and services. Advanced materials can boost the transition to greener technologies, with improved characteristics and enhanced performance, contributing to a more sustainable future and contributing to the objectives set by the European Green Deal. Giving this central role of nanotechnology and advance materials and its relevance for a sustainable, social- and environmental-friendly growth, the EuroNanoForum 2021 will be addressing the role of nano-enabled industries in the drive towards a green and resilient Europe.
Nanotechnology and advanced materials play a pivotal role in advancing technologies that can offer efficient solutions to societal challenges of our time and important issues that continue to haunt the global industrial supply chains. They exert a great impact on a large range of industrial sectors and are cornerstone to build a sustainable and green economy. Supporting this industrial transformation towards the EU prosperity requires reinvigorating the research and industrial ecosystem, establish new communities and involve all groups in society in identifying nano-enabled technological priorities.
The EuroNanoForum 2021 conference will be addressing the role of nano-enabled industries in this transformation towards the EU prosperity. The event will bring together experts across different sectors to identify policy options and priorities, to share insight on technical, industrial and social challenges, their views and ideas about the role of nanotechnology and advanced materials. This will be achieved with the collective effort of several actors encompassing researchers, innovators, industries, regions, public authorities, investors and civil society, in the co-creation of innovative solutions.
