About UNIQUE
UNIQUE is co-financed by the European Commission under EU Framework Programme 7. The project is running for 2½ years from September 2009 until February 2012. The consortium of the UNIQUE project consists of eight European organizations. UNIQUE brings together five academic and research institutions (including three leading universities and two research SMEs) and three large microelectronics companies from six European countries (Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Ireland and the Netherlands). These organisations are forming an unbroken chain stretching from basic research and security design to applied research and end-user producers for consumers and industry.
