Minatec (initially called the Micro and Nanotechnology Innovation Centre) is a European research centre focused on micro-nano technologies in Grenoble, France.

The centre was launched in 2006 as a partnership between LETI (the Electronics and Information Technologies Laboratory of CEA, the French Atomic Energy Commission) and by INPG (Grenoble Institute of Technology). The project combines a physical research campus with a network of companies, researchers and engineering schools.

Minatec is home to 3,000 researchers, 1,200 students, and 600 technology transfer experts[1] on a state-of-the-art 20-hectare campus offering 10,000 m2 of cleanroom space.

The Minatec campus has dedicated special-events facilities (900 m²), ranging from 20-person conference rooms to a 400-seat amphitheater. These spaces are available to researchers for their scientific events such as the international conference Nanosafe held every two years since 2008.[2]
