Norman, OK | Posted on April 20th, 2015

The two-day event includes roundtable sessions followed by meetings with
numerous government officials in regard to the National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI). Scheduled meetings include representatives of the legislative and executive branch as well as the NNCO, OSTP, NSF and other agencies participating in the funding of the NNI.

"The NanoBCA is the industry's strongest advocate," says Dave Arthur. "I am looking forward to addressing the group to discuss our mutual opportunities and challenges in moving our industry forward as it continues to make great strides."

"Dave Arthur is spearheading development of nano applications in the U.S. and around the world and it is always a pleasure to have him address our group," says Vincent Caprio, executive director of the Washington, DC -based NanoBusiness Commercialization Association. "He is outspoken on the need for the U.S. to have a thriving nanotechnology industry. We look forward to his input in securing additional funding and resources to maintain U.S. leadership in this vital industry."

In addition to his position as CEO of SouthWest NanoTechnologies, Arthur is also president of Chasm Technologies, a nano R&D firm that has developed a carbon nanotube ink that can be used on conventional printing equipment.

About NanoBCA

NanoBCA has a long and continuous history of actively representing its members on Capitol Hill and advocating for the continued allocation of significant funds per the National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI). NanoBCA’s dedicated work in shaping national nanotechnology policy has created a favorable policy climate for nanotechnology at every level, benefiting academic research, small businesses, and the manufacturing industry. NanoBCA has been advocating Congress to ensure the continuous allocation of government funds to nanotechnology, such as basic research and SBIR grants, throughout all the major government agencies (DOD, DOE, NSF, NIH, etc.). NanoBCA also works to accelerate the commercialization of nanotechnology innovations by representing its members on Wall Street, drawing the attention of the global financial community to this high-potential sector. Based in Washington, D.C., and Shelton, Connecticut, the NanoBCA serves the entirety of the United States and its territories. Their vision is focused on ensuring that the United States is and remains a global leader in the burgeoning field of nanotechnology. By monitoring newly passed and proposed legislation from the Federal and State governments, it ventures to assure the safe, secure, and beneficial use of nanotechnology and nanoscience for all peoples.
