These technology vouchers constitute a funding tool to ensure that the advanced knowledge held by the centers will have an immediate impact on the transformation of Donostia-San Sebastian-based companies and that it will generate the development of new business opportunities by increasing the companies’ competitive capacity.

The External Services Department of nanoGUNE has been set up as a scientific infrastructure open to technical and research teams from various fields of business, ranging from SMEs (small and medium-sized enterprises) to large companies within a broad range of industrial sectors. Its three main lines of services are nano/micro manufacturing, physicochemical characterization and structural and morphological characterization.

This funding program has resulted in, for example, joint work of the San Sebastian-Donostia-based centers CIC nanoGUNE and the AEG Professional Innovation Institute in producing textile garments using sustainable materials, or the collaboration of the San Sebastian-Donostia-based centers CIC nanoGUNE and KUSUDAMA Therapeutics SL in the study to measure the actual loading of drugs onto individual nanoparticles for the treatment of various lung conditions.
