METANANO is attracting more and more participants every year from different scientific fields – from fundamental research in Photonics and Plasmonics to business-oriented projects in Radiophysics, Bionanotechnologies, and Solar Energy.

Leading scientists, young researchers and industrial representatives come to network, generate new ideas and meet potential collaborators. We aim to show you a different side of St. Petersburg, a city basking in the legacy of the FIFA 2018 World Cup and which not only boasts bridges and golden palaces but also breathtaking nature.

The conference is organized by the Research Centre of Nanophotonics and Metamaterials of ITMO University and is supported by the Mediterranean Institute of Fundamental Physics.
