More than 40 of Europe’s most advanced cleanroom and nanofabrication facilities are united within the EuroNanoLab network. This week, Myfab joined the Steering Committee meeting in Leuven, Belgium.

Over two days, representatives from leading facilities across Europe met to exchange knowledge, share best practices, and discuss future joint initiatives. The overall ambition is to transform Europe’s previously fragmented nanofabrication landscape into a coordinated infrastructure, enabling more complex research and accelerating scientific progress.

As part of the programme, participants also visited KU Leuven’s M&N Fab Core Facility Cleanroom and LIMNI@KU Leuven. These visits provided valuable opportunities to discuss infrastructure development, user support models, and future collaboration.

EuroNanoLab was established to address the fragmentation of Europe’s nanofabrication landscape by connecting leading cleanroom facilities into a single, coordinated infrastructure. By enabling shared access to advanced equipment, expertise, and processes across borders, the network helps researchers and companies accelerate development, reduce time to results, and tackle complex technological challenges. Today, EuroNanoLab brings together more than 40 facilities and continues to play a key role in strengthening Europe’s competitiveness in micro- and nanotechnology.

EuroNanoLab also organises the European Nanofabrication Research Infrastructure Symposium (ENRIS), a biennial conference that brings together experts from academia, industry, and cleanroom operations to exchange knowledge, discuss best practices, and advance collaboration across the field.
