Pistorio to head Euro nanotechnology platform
The mission of the ENIAC program is to put in place the recommendations of a comprehensive report entitled "Vision 20/20: Nanoelectronics at the centre of change". The report results from the work of a high level group of executives from leading industries and research organisations, supported by the European Commission.
The report predicts that the progress of nanoelectronics will continue for at least another 15 years, and will give rise to another revolution in the number of applications enabled by this technology. ENIAC's goals include supporting public and private R&D investments in nanotechnology and the development of a common European vision for the next era of an increasingly knowledge-based world economy.
Pistorio comments: "This cooperation will provide a strategic framework in which all European public and private enterprises will be able to work effectively together to contribute to the development of this new age and will reinforce Europe's position as a key player in the global economy."
