Summary

Korea is allocating “not small” budget for the nanotechnology development.

Comparing to the USA or Japan, this budget is still very small.

Korea’s approach should be different from those of the U.S.A. and Japan;

Government strongly commits to initiate NT development programs.

Efficient use of resources is needed.

Careful choice of R&D themes and concentration is required.

A broad area of nanotechnology is currently being explored.

Nanotechnology should help Korea’s some industries keep their leading edge:

Examples: Display, Memory, TFT-LCD, Optical Storage, Appliances
