The meeting includes an update on the state-of-the-art of the pilot and of the demo-cases, interactive sessions to boost current collaborations and to launch new ones, and visits to research laboratories.
In particular, the one and a half-day meeting is intended to  get an update on the progress of the current democases and work towards their development as well as exchange new ideas to start-up new democases.

Moreover, a keynote speech will present the Italian Network for Micro and Nano Fabrication (It-fab) and the EuroNanoLab initiative and site vists to Bologna University (CIRI MM) and to CNR research area (IMM) will be organised to get real taste of research laboratories dedicated to nanotechnologies.

All Vanguard Member Regions as well as their industrial and research actors are invited to join the meeting and to contribute to the pilot and democase development.

The Pilot could reimburse travel and accommodation costs - up to a certain limit - for a number of participants representing industry and research organizations who are interested in playing an active role in the agenda, such as presenting innovative idea in the pitching and matchmaking sessions.
