Minatec (initially called the Micro and Nanotechnology Innovation Centre) is a European research centre focused on micro-nano technologies in Grenoble, France.
The centre was launched in 2006 as a partnership between LETI (the Electronics and Information Technologies Laboratory of CEA, the French Atomic Energy Commission) and by INPG (Grenoble Institute of Technology). The project combines a physical research campus with a network of companies, researchers and engineering schools.
Minatec is home to 2,400 researchers, 1,200 students, and 600 technology transfer experts[1].
