 * What I think should be changed: The first introduction paragraph of the entry
 * Why it should be changed: From my discussions with an admin in the German Wikipedia I learned that to describe this research centre properly the entry needs more independent sources and has to explain in more detail the relevance of the research centre. I improved the German entry until the german admin said it was ready to go. I think the same rationale is valid here, and that was the reason why other users flagged the english entry as too promotional and have shortened it substantially. However, I think a few more details are helpful to understand what this research centre is about. So I suggest a new, extended first paragraph equivalent to the german version:

ANAXAM stands for "Analytics with Neutrons And X-rays for Advanced Manufacturing" and it is a knowledge and technology transfer centre in Switzerland. According to the Swiss government, it is one of the research competence centres of national importance. Anaxam is part of the federal government's "Digitalisation" action plan and a member of the Advanced Manufacturing Technology Transfer Centers (AM-TTC) association. The latter was founded by the federal government to promote innovation and accelerate the transfer of knowledge through the development and provision of infrastructure. Anaxam is located on the Park Innovaare campus in the canton of Aargau.

It is a non-profit organisation, that aims to provide industry with access to advanced analytical methods originally developed for basic research. Anaxam works with project partners on the basis of "public-private partnerships".

The centre provides industry with materials analysis using neutron and synchrotron radiation (X-rays) in the field of non-destructive material testing. The technologies offered support companies in the optimisation of processes and products as well as in quality control and quality assurance. The project partners come from the raw materials industry, the metal industry, medical technology, the pharmaceutical industry and the automotive industry, among others. They include large companies as well as SMEs, regional companies as well as national and international companies. The german entry: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANAXAM
