Progress in science opens new frontiers for technological applications. Micro- and nanotechnologies enable the creation of new products that allow us to work better, communicate more freely and improve our quality of health and security. Switzerland has a long tradition in micro- and nanotechnology, a heritage from the centuries-old watch industry, and plays a leading role in innovation. More and more companies are seeking new solutions for their projects requiring miniaturization, lower energy consumption or more sophisticated functions.
The Swiss MNT Network was created to simplify access for industries looking for competences and external expertise in micro- and nanotechnology. It is a result of an initiative of the leading Swiss R&D institutions active in micro- and nanotechnology, an initiative supported by KTI/CTI, the Swiss agency for the promotion of innovation. By combining the strengths of its partners the Swiss MNT Network forms the basis for establishing and maintaining Switzerland's leading role in micro- and nanotechnology. Swiss MNT Network is firmly industry-oriented and strives to bring innovative and more complete solutions to its industrial partners.
Our Vision
The Swiss MNT Network offers complete development chains to micro- and nanotechnology by providing a vast array of services from the conception of ideas to the fabrication of prototypes, for the small-scale production of its customers in academia as well as in industry in Switzerland and beyond. The Swiss MNT Network aims to be top-ranking to its customers in terms of quality, response time and comprehensiveness of service. The goal of Swiss MNT Network is to become the leading Swiss public network as the provider of MNT solutions in micro- and nanotechnology.
