Catrene expands portfolio

European cluster to announce new projects

CATRENE, the industry-driven Cluster for Application and Technology Research in Europe on NanoElectronics (EUREKA 4140) has announced its third call for project proposals from 1st February to 1st June 2010. Participation in the Project Outline phase is mandatory until 18th March for participation in the subsequent Full Proposal phase. After the evaluation and selection process, the final decision can be expected on 30th June 2010 with project labelling. It can be assumed that the projects will start from January 2011.

Considering the pace of the technical and business evolution in the nanoelectronics domain, it was anticipated from the beginning that annual call for proposals would be launched within the first phase of the programme (2008-2011).
With already 21 active projects resulting from the first and second call, involving 300 participating organisations from 16 European countries and almost 7000 person-years of researchers, CATRENE is the leading European programme in nanoelectronics supported by industry and governments.
