How to use the platform

This page provides help on how to use main features made available on the NewSkin platform.

Why register on the NewSkin platform?

The NewSkin project aims at gathering a critical mass of actors involved or interested in innovations in the field of nanotechnologies and surface treatment.

The platform is an interactive tool allowing these stakeholders to contact each other and organise discussions on current innovation projects.

This platform intends to be a stepping stone for launching new innovation projects in the NewSkin’s topics.

Moreover, the NewSkin open calls will be published in this tool. Stakeholders will have the opportunity to follow the calls and to candidate through the NewSkin platform
