About MESA+

👉 Our mission: Towards a sustainable future

We are convinced that research at the nanoscale is the key to applications that contribute to the quality of life and make our society more sustainable and safer. Thanks to their small scale, these applications have a minimum footprint. They lead to lower use of raw materials and energy. They also lead to more human-friendly, less invasive medical technology. They lead to radically new solutions for our digitalised society.

👉 Our vision: Ground-breaking nanotechnology for societal challenges with room for toptalent

We develop ground-breaking nanotechnology that contributes to solutions for actual societal challenges. Driven by our fascination with the smallest possible scale, our researchers build materials and components that provide sustainable and unexpected solutions to many of these challenges. We offer top talent the team spirit and infrastructure that enables them to flourish. We realise that to make this possible and to maintain and strengthen our ‘cutting edge’ position, we have the responsibility to invest in young talent.

🔬 Ground-breaking research

Embracing a cross-disciplinary approach and benefiting from the MESA+ NanoLab, over 600 researchers deliver high quality, frequently ground-breaking research. MESA+ actively seeks for collaboration with external partners providing an excellent setting for consortium formation. Next to our excellent scientists and facilities, we offer a strong regional ecosystem that creates the breeding ground to let ideas blossom and grow into relevant, successful solutions and businesses.
