Our Alliances and Partnerships


Elettra Sincrotrone Trieste plays a leading role in the development of strategic projects in the European Landscape such as the ESFRI projects ESS, ELI and NFFA. Moreover, its role extends outside Europe, for example with the partnership in the strategic OPEN-SESAME H2020 project.

The laboratory is also an associate of IAEA, the  International Atomic Energy Agency (established in 1957 within the framework of the United Nations for the peaceful use of nuclear technology) and is part of the primary science and technology network of the Central European Initiative (CEI).

Elettra hosts the National Laboratory TASC (IOM-CNR), a facility for micromanufacturing and nanoscience and has also established enduring working relationships with important Italian and foreign institutions, including various Italian National Research Council institutes, the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, the Indian Department of Science and Technology (DST) and the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore, UNESCO’s International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP), the International School of Advanced Studies (ISAS/SISSA) and the Universities of Graz, Milan, Nova Gorica, Trento, Trieste and Udine.
These partners are actively contributing to the construction and operation of beamlines and support laboratories.

Elettra’s scientific and technical quality and developments are constantly monitored by board appointed international Committees, who advise on all relevant aspects of the general and development policy, scientific programs, accelerator development, technology transfer and industrial applications.
