The "Centre d'Investigacions en Nanociència i Nanotecnologia" (CIN2) is a mixed Research Institute that has as partners the "Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas" (CSIC) and the "Institut Català de Nanotecnologia" (ICN). The legal structure of the ICN is that of a private Foundation with public capital which is constituted, likewise, by two partners, the "Generalitat de Catalunya" through the "Departament d'Innovació, Universitats i Empresa" and the "Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona". From the point of view of scientific research policy, the CIN2 is a relevant example of collaboration between Catalunya and the Central Government. Its formal and legal structure allows exploiting the synergies between both partners (CSIC and ICN), following the principles of scientific excellence that are key to the CIN2's foundational deed.
