Compared to Multi Wires Proportional Chambers (MWPC), Micro-Pattern GasDetectors (MPGD) used in HEP to detect MIPs offer better spatial resolution,counting rate capability, and radiation hardness; their fabrication is alsomore reproducible. Provided similar advantages are applicable to detectneutrons, MPGDs might contribute significantly to the development of neutronscientific instrumentation. In order to evaluate the prospects of neutronMPGDs, it is worth knowing the applications which would benefit from a gain inperformance, and if they offer a competitive alternative to conventional 3Hedetectors. These questions have been at the focus of the workshop "NeutronDetection with Micro-Pattern Gaseous Detectors" organized by RD51 incollaboration with HEPTech, which took place at CERN on October 14-15, 2013.The goal of this workshop was to help disseminating MPGD technologies beyondHigh Energy Physics, and to give the possibility to academic institutions,potential users and industry to meet together.  This summary article starts with a short summary of the state of the art ofMPGD techniques for HEP; then specificities in the design of neutron detectorare described; the consequence of the 3He shortage are briefly discussed;requirements for neutron scattering science at current facilities and at thefuture ESS are described; finally, we give some recommendations about possibledirections where we believe the development of neutron MPGDs is of particularinterest for possible use on neutron scattering instruments.
