Room LEHAR
This session introduces a stream of content looking at the commercialisation of nanotechnology, addressing challenges such a technology transfer, industrialisation, skills, and access to finance.
This first session starts with a higher level view, looking at policies, funding, infrastructure and other systemic factors that stimulate successful commercialisation. This begins with a introduction to the whole commercialisation topic from the NANOCOM project, before looking at the overall state of play in nanotechnology commercialisation, and then diving into three very different country and regional environments. The session concludes with a tangible success case which shows what can be achieved.
