Innovative Mass-Storage Technologies (IMST) began in 2001 to provide a unique forum in Europe to gather specialists from all areas of mass storage technologies and emerging nonvolatile solid state memories. A strong interaction of industrial and academic specialists is encouraged in IMST activities, providing valuable opportunities for experts with different backgrounds to gain a deeper and broader understanding of the field. IMST activities include international workshops, roadmap definition, strategy discussions, and collaborative EU projects. The last IMST international conference was held at IMEC in Leuven in November 2008. The IMST activities are now supported directly as part of an EU FP6 SSA (Specific Support Action) project called WIND (Wide INtegrated Technologies Diffusion).
