Next event to meet up with TNNN

3rd - 4th of June

The Sensor Decade 2026 đź’™

The Sensor Decade is Norway’s key meeting point for industry, research institutes, and academia working with sensors and sensing. The program spans sensor materials, integration, design, microfabrication, AI‑enhanced sensing, and real‑world industrial applications. With strong industry participation, it’s the place to learn how Norwegian leaders in sensors, electronics, and optics view future trends, competence needs, and upcoming opportunities — as well as a great arena for meeting potential collaborators or employers.

TNNN will cover the conference registration fee and offer a 3000 NOK travel grant for members attending The Sensor Decade 2026 (June 3–4 in Oslo). Travel grants are limited to members outside the Oslo area. Spots are limited, so please email us if you wish to attend. Grants are allocated on a first‑come, first‑served basis.
