But what a beautiful edition!
For two intense and inspiring days, the micro/nano community gathered in Villars-sur-Ollon for the 17th Micronarc Apline Meeting.
From high-level presentations to spontaneous exchanges, concrete industrial feedback and new connections, 𝗺𝗔𝗺 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 once again demonstrated the strength and diversity of the microtechnology ecosystem, all in the unique atmosphere of 𝗔𝗹𝗽𝗲𝘀 𝘀𝘂𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗲𝘀!
This year’s event was organized around four thematic sessions: Watchmaking, Medtech, Sensors & NextGenerationEnergy.
…as well as three inspiring keynotes opening up new perspectives on technology, industry and innovation.
