Net4Air

Net4Air project, run by the National R&D Institute for Microtechnologies in Bucharest, Romania, is a Coordination and Support Action funded by the European Commission under the Twinning framework. The goals of the Net4Air project are to significantly advance excellence capacity and resources in IMT with a view of addressing the research and innovation gap and imbalance within Europe by broadly increasing IMT expertise, know-how and attractiveness in innovative nanotechnologies, materials, devices, smart systems, data analytics and best-practices for environment monitoring. Project’s goals are in line with the European Green Deal principles for protecting the environment and contributing to citizens health and wellbeing. A Networking Centre for excellence in Nanoelectronics was launched within the project by joining together around the Consortium partners and the R&D actors (from research institutes, universities departments, environmental NGOs, national accredited labs, SMEs, and big industrial players) in Sensing Technologies and Data management for Environmental monitoring applications, to bridge the gap between Western Europe organizations and lower-performing institutions in Romania and therefore making a contribution towards facilitating Romania’s better integration into the European Research Area.
