The competitiveness of high-tech companies very much relies on short time-to-market, which can only be achieved by faster product engineering. The European project CORONA meets this challenge - for three years, having started in July 2008, nine partners all along the value chain in micro- and nanotechnologies (MNT) strive for accelerating the businesses of European companies. Amongst others, the project shall support customer-lead multi-site product development and provide an access to a knowledge-base on design and processes as well as to information and communication technology infrastructure and tools.
Now the website http://www.corona-mnt.eu has been launched. It presents the objectives, benefits and the methodology of the project and will keep interested persons informed about the results. Furthermore, coming events presenting CORONA will be announced here. CORONA was showcased for the first time at the medical suppliers' fair COMPAMED from November 19 to 21 in Düsseldorf, Germany.
CORONA is a NMP (Nanosciences, Nanotechnologies, Materials and new Production Technologies) project in the Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) funded by the European Commission. The CORONA consortium includes companies, partly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), and institutes that contribute experience in design methodology and tools for micro- and nanotechnology, MNT production in various technological areas as well as networking and dissemination activities. Involved are:
- IVAM e.V., Microtechnology Network, Dortmund, Germany
- Coventor Sarl, Villebon sur Yvette, France
- Elmos Advanced Packaging BV, Nijmegen, the Netherlands
- Instytut Technologii Elektronowej, Warsaw, Poland
- Process Relations GmbH, Dortmund, Germany
- Theon Sensors SA, Athens, Greece
- University of Cambridge, Cambridge, Great Britain
- Universität Siegen, Siegen, Germany
- X-FAB Semiconductor Foundries AG, Erfurt, Germany

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
