Opto-Micro-Nano Innovative Network Exploiting Transversality

Obiettivo

OMNI-NET aims to provide EU national and regional stakeholders with analysis, methodology, best practice, joint projects and policy recommendations to facilitate the necessary evolution of clusters in transverse and convergent technologies. OMNI-NET focuses on optics and micro/nano electronics (OMN) clusters, relating to IST and NMP technologies. Challenges faced by most technological clusters are convergence and transversality/pervasion. The term convergence applies to technologies that previously belonged to separate fields and are now necessarily combined to meet the demand of end markets. The terms transverse and pervasive apply to technologies that serve a wide range of applicative markets, such as ICT, automotive, aerospace, medical equipment and energy.

OMNI-NET aims to foster cooperation between OMN clusters and investigate how they use technological convergence to evolve and serve and/or drive applicative markets, and how this impacts cluster strategy, organisation, communication, equipment and financing. OMNI-NET conclusions will be applicable to a wide range of clusters in convergent technologies such as biotechnology, software, etc., thus contribute to the needs of the EU knowledge economy and industrial dynamics. Existing cluster theory will be adapted to the partners' specific experience, with the aim to provide a set of best practice and methodological tools to help regional, national and European policy makers shape new policies in view of the huge opportunities brought by convergence.

To provide a set of best practice and methodological tools, OMNI-NET will adapt the existing cluster theory and use experience of other networks such as IRE, Gate2Growth and PAXIS. OMNI-NET outputs will be transferred towards the wider EU innovation community through continuous dissemination, particularly to regions from new member and applicant states.
