The promise of tomorrow, the business of nanotechnology

Filed in archive Events by george elvin on August 28, 2006

September 27-28 I'm headed to Dallas for the NanoTX 2006 conference, "The Promise of Tomorrow, the Business of Nanotechnology."

Speakers include H. Ross Perot, Texas Instruments CEO Richard K. Templeton, Dr. Tadashi Sasaki, Chairman of the International Center for Materials Research.

Front and center on the conference homepage are these motivational words from Applied Nanotech CEO Dr. Zvi Yaniv:

"Nanotechnology will completely restructure industries and economies and is recognized as technology disruptive to every field. Entire business segments are going to disappear while new exciting segments will be created. Major government initiatives by countries all over the world and large funds have already been committed to win the nanotechnology race."

I'll be posting live reports from Dallas to keep you up-to-date on all the action.

Since the idea has appeared, nanotechnology promised to be the future in technology. I like the whole idea of nanotechnology, but could that future come quicker?

Response from: george elvin (09/05/06 5:29am)

Progress may seem slow when there's so much hype and expectation, but with billions of dollars in research going into nanotech research and new labs cropping up every day, the breakthroughs will come. On the market side, for example, nanotech-enhanced sheets are now available at JC Penny.

Nanotechnology is our future for sure, but this implies a lot of money and time spent for researching. So, all we have to do is to be patient and wait for the new technology generation and meanwhile to prepare for the new prices.
