Dear colleagues,

We cordially invite you to the first edition of the NanoLabNL Userday, which will be held on Monday, 28 October 2024, in Eindhoven (Auditorium building). We have organized two sessions during the day with speakers from Delft, Eindhoven, Amsterdam, and Twente. Of course, there will be plenty of room for networking and exchanging knowledge and expertise.

The NanoLabNL Userday will occur during the first day of the annual International MicroNanoConference (iMNC), which MinacNed organises on 28 and 29 October. We kindly invite you to attend the plenary session of the iMNC, which will feature keynote lectures by Sjoerd Verduyn Lunel (ASML), Prof. Dr. Bert Meijer (Eindhoven University), and Prof. Dr. Albert van den Berg (University of Twente), and to use the networking opportunities with companies, knowledge institutions, and students.
