What is Nanotechnology?
Nanotechnology: The ability to do things – measure, see, predict and make – on the scale of atoms and molecules
Traditionally, the nanotechnology realm is defined as being between 0.1 and 100 nanometers, a nanometer being one thousandth of a micron, which is in return one thousandth of a millimeter
Nanotechnology: The Next Industrial Revolution
Nanotechnology will effect almost every aspect of our lives – from the medicines we take; to computers we use; to the energy supplies we require; to the food we eat; to the cars we drive; to the buildings we live in; to the clothes we wear
For every area where we can imagine the impact of nanotech, there will be others no one has yet thought of – new capabilities, new products, and new markets
Nanotechnology revenues are expected to reach over $200 billion by 2006
NSF predicts a $1 Trillion global market for nanotechology in little over a decade
Key Trends Significant government funding – US and Abroad
Rapid development of academic programs Over 30 nanotechnology programs across US
Venture funding growing at 30+% per year
Impressive corporate R&D budgets $100 million from IBM for Albany Nanotech $100 million investment from GE in new technologies lab Multi-million investments from NIAC, Matsui, Mitsubishi and others
300+ nanotech companies at work in the US alone
Areas of Nanotechnology: Life Sciences and Medicine
Nanotechnology will expand life spans, improve quality of health and enhance human physical capabilities
About half of all pharmaceutical production will be dependent on nanotechnology – affecting over $180 billion in revenues in 10-15 years
Nanotechnology Developments in Life Science and Medicine:
Nanoparticle Tagging Drug Delivery Cellular Manipulation
Areas of Nanotechnology: Materials Science
When particles get small enough their mechanical properties change
Using nanoparticles in composite materials can enhance their strength and/or reduce weight, increase chemical and heat resistance and change the interaction with light and other radiation
Nanostructured materials are expected to be more than a $340 billion market within a decade (Hitachi Research Inst)
Nanotech lighting advances alone are expected to cut worldwide energy consumption by 10% in 10-15 years
Nanotechnology Developments in Materials Science:
Nanocomposites Nanofibers Nanoparticulate Fillers
Areas of Nanotechnology: Nanoparticle Catalysts
Many industrial processes are being affected by nanotechnology advances. Improved capabilities in making nanoparticles is allowing for making better catalysts
Nanotechnology Developments in Nanoparticle Catalysts:
Fuel Cells
Solar Cells
Light Sources
Pharmaceutical Processes
Areas of Nanotechnology: Electronics and Information Technology
In electronics the benefits of working smaller cannot be overstated
The semiconductor industry sees Moore’s Law coming to an end due to present materials and systems limitations –nanotechnology appears to provide the answer
Circuit elements will consist of single molecules
Nanoscale structures, such as quantum dots offer the opportunity to recreate the computer– developing the quantum computer

“Build on success” model of economic development
Lessons from the Past on Building Technology Clusters
There is not a Texas solution for Virginia or a Chicago model for Brussels – but there are key lessons and best practices to learn from
Being out of the gate early is very important. Being out of the gate intelligently is more important
A pure government model won’t work. However, at this nascent stage – a pure private sector model won’t work either
Any successful plan for success must include these parties from the beginning:
Government
Corporations
Universities
Entrepreneurs
Non Profits
Service Industry
Investors
