NanoMaterials2011 - Inspiring Commercial Success of Nanotechnology in Europe

Sept. 28, 2010 - PRLog -- NanoCentral, in partnership with IntertechPira, is proud to announce dates and location for 5th annual NanoMaterials conference. Returning to the Hotel Russell, London, UK, on 7-9 June 2011, the event will deliver an outstanding learning and networking platform for anyone involved with commercialised nanotechnology.

Building on its conceptual origin, the 5th edition of this unrivalled event will focus on topics such as innovation, success stories, strategy and policy. The event's main aim being promotion of progress and new ideas, NanoMaterials will follow this trend and deliver new programme structure in 2011.

NanoMaterials 2011 will feature 2 plenary sessions and 3 parallel sessions with a change in focus from the previous editions. These 3 programme tracks will focus on:

- Policy, Business & Finance:
Navigating the regulatory landscape, securing project funding and how to do business in the global nanomaterials marketplace

- Synthesis and production:
Manufacturing efficiencies, upscaling, production management and quality control

- Innovations in nanomaterials
The latest developments in nanomaterials, testing and characterisation across a broad spectrum of end-use applications

Opening plenary session in the morning of day 1 and the closing plenary session in the afternoon of day 2 will present senior industry players providing real insight into key issues that affect the entire commercialised nanotechnology supply chain.

Speaker recruitment for NanoMaterials2011 is under way. Interested candidates should submit their abstracts, including maximum of 500 words and a profile of the speaker, to Robert Stead at Robert.stead@pira-international or on +44 (0) 1372 802087 by 31 October 2010.
