Overview

 

Smart Nano NI aims to create a new supply chain for nano-photonic chips into the healthcare, optical communications and data storage sectors; strengthen development of the cluster through coordinated promotion, branding, business development and international activities, and support a skills initiative with a focus on the workforces needed by the cluster in future.

The Smart Nano NI programme consists of a core of four collaborative R&D work-packages focussed on taking novel plasmonic/metamaterial photonic designs through advanced prototyping and on to large scale smart nanomanufacturing augmented by an Accelerator to bring in new partners. The Board will work with members of the Productivity Institute to develop suitable innovation and economic indicators and evaluation.
