Results

The program NanoNextNL was run from 2010-2016 and was evaluated as highly succesful.

The number of scientific publications and presentations of very high quality and the direct economic impact via larger private partners, but also the relationship with sub-programs in the field of network formation, risk and implementation aspects (RATA), education of researchers and entrepreneurs and valorisation through start-up up development are unique in the Dutch public-private landscape.2016 and had a very succesful evaluation.
