Businesses in the nanotechnology field may even forget the word nano. To secure success they have to focus on solving customers’ problem and better communicate business opportunities that nanotechnologies may bring (Nov '11)

A major challenge for nanobusiness is to find a unique selling proposition, out of a diverse range of possible applications. Potential investors need better understanding of nanotech-related business opportunities

To take an invention to the market is a challenging process. Thanks to significant support of ProNano, the Germany-based life science company Cellendes have now their synthetic hydrogels on the market. However, they are facing a pressing issue

A new generation of robotic systems is learning from neurons to move and interact in sync. These machines can sense, lift, and manipulate delicate objects with unprecedented precision and could one day assist nurses, move patients, or even manage sensitive tissues in clinical environments.

Dr. Uffe Bundgaard-Jørgensen serves as a link between scientists and investors. He calls himself a rare animal who has been on both sides of the fence. With this experience he knows how both entrepreneurs and investors think and can tell how their meeting can become smoother

The field of nanotechnology is relatively new and many customers do not have any ideas of the applications of nanotechnology. The project ProNano offers help to researchers with nanotechnological innovations, on the route to commercialization. Francisco de Aristegui gives his view on the initiative

The life science company Cellendes in Germany has developed synthetic hydrogels that make it possible to culture cells in three-dimensional environments. Their invention has fundamental advantages over other hydrogels for three-dimensional cultivation, also on the market

Many research results within the nanotechnological field could benefit society. However, researchers are facing barriers when trying to bring their innovations to the market
