On the 28th September, from 11:00 to 13:00, CiaoTech / PNO Group will organise the Workshop “Best practices on the use of EU funding for innovation on nanomaterials: the cases of MULTY2HYCAT and NanoMEMC2” in the framework of NanoInnovation 2017.

The event aims at illustrating how EU funding could be successfully exploited to implement your Research & Innovation projects. The case studies presented are MULTY2HYCAT and NanoMEMC², two projects recently funded by the European Commission in the framework of the Horizon 2020 Programme.

MULTY2HYCAT’s goal is to design, obtain proof of concept, upscale and obtain industrial validation in a pre-pilot reactor of a new class of hierarchically-porous organic-inorganic hybrid materials to be used as active catalysts in multi-step asymmetric catalytic processes in specialty chemicals and pharma applications.

NanoMEMC² aims at developing new nanomaterials-based membranes to reduce the cost, energy and process limitations which currently make pre and post-combustion CO₂ capture processes non-viable in many industrial applications, such as petrol refining and cement plants.

At the end of presentations, CiaoTech / PNO Group consultants are at your disposal for one-to one meeting (10 minutes) to analyse your project idea to be financed by EU funding.
