Micro & Nano Event 2026

Are you active in the fields of micro- and nanotechnology, advanced materials, or precision engineering, and looking for new business or technology partners? Join the international matchmaking event Micro & Nano Event 2026, which will take place on October 1–2 in Besançon, France.

Micro & Nano Event 2026 will bring together European small and medium-sized enterprises, startups, clusters, associations, and research organizations active in the fields of micro- and nanotechnology and other high-tech sectors.
