Small, mid-sized and large enterprises join forces with RTOs to develop state-of-the-art technological solutions in electronic components and systems. R&D includes sensors, related integration, software, connectivity, and data management. Focus on safety, security, and reliability R&D as well as on autonomous movement and robotics platforms.

The Institute of Microelectronics of Barcelona (IMB-CNM-CSIC) leads the technical section of the development of a software that will allow access to the information stored in a chip. The objective of the ForRES project, financed with more than 2 million euros, is to improve the digital forensic analysis of electronic devices.

The TRIGGER projects are a novel formula of the IMB-CNM to give coordination experience to the center's postdoctoral staff.

They collaborate in Qu-Pilot, an initiative financed with 19 million euros that will favor the development of companies in design, development and validation processes and quantum hardware. It will improve quantum technology infrastructures and respond to the demand of companies that need this knowledge.

This project, financed with more than 7 million euros, will improve the semiconductor technology of devices involved in the production and distribution of renewable energy. The objective is to develop new systems based on silicon carbide, a semiconductor almost as resistant as diamond, which could be key in the energy transition.

The project led by Neus Sabaté, a researcher at the Institute of Microelectronics of Barcelona, has been selected to receive funding from the European Research Council for her PRONTO project:  self-PoweRed cONductimeter for digiTalization of rapid mOlecular diagnostics.

This is the first Spanish electric thruster for nanosatellites, developed by the startup IENAI SPACE, to maximize the lifetime of the devices and offer orientation control to nanosatellites. The electric drive uses innovative electrospray technology, based on silicon chips manufactured in the CSIC's Micro and Nanofabrication Clean Room at the IMB-CNM.

The UAB will host a workshop on the progress of SINCRO, a project to develop an optical sensor to control the quality of the water supplied. The Institute of Microelectronics of Barcelona (IMB-CNM, CSIC) participates in the consortium that promotes this project funded by the Ministry of Economy.
