One of the aims of NanoNed is to strengthen Dutch knowledge infrastructure through a comprehensive knowledge transfer approach, leading to industrial nanotechnology applications (processes, products, services, general industrial activities). Besides, attention will be paid to societal output and the innovation proces. To this end, a Valorisation platform has been established that will play an important role in realising the valorisation targets by coaching and monitoring. Besides, users' committees are installed within each flagship.

One of the tools to optimise the transfer of knowledge is the use of users’ committees, a discussion platform composed of the research group and industrial partners. The task of the users' committee is to provide adequate supervision of each flagship and to ensure that the researcher does not lose sight of the application aspect whilst carrying out his research. It provides information, and also functions as a discussion partner.
