The latest nanos news on our social networks
06/01/2025
Newsflash
information
New articles are in preparation. Until they are published, you can check out our social networks @VeilleNanos, where we compile nanos news spotted as part of our watch:
- Linkedin (this is where you’ll find the most frequent information)
- Bluesky (opened in November 2024)
X / Twitter(discontinued at the same date)
If you’d prefer a more synthetic look back at the first half of 2024, we invite you to consult our @VeilleNanos summer newsletter.
You can also find out about the events in which we are taking part in AVICENN agenda and, more generally, about other nano-related events in veillenanos.fr agenda.
When we’re not on this site or at conferences, we sometimes prepare articles with other media, which you can find on ‘AVICENN’s work in the spotlight’ page.
And in any case, if you have any questions, information or analyses to share, please write to us at contact@veillenanos.fr.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon,
AVICENN
