Nanotechnology: Business Applications and Commercialization
is a guide for businesses, investors, and research universities who want to bring nanotechnology products to the commercial market. Showing how academia and business can partner to commercialize nanomaterial research, it delineates business aspects for scientists and highlights opportunities for business professionals.Some of the key topics covered include:
Questions to ask before writing a business plan
Products consumers are currently using
Grant and funding options
Standardization that will affect domestic and international production
Dangers that must be managed to ensure the safety of nanotechnology
Commercialization centers and organizations that provide support
Barriers to nanotechnology commercialization
