Abstract:
One may also add some pointers: with all the research being done in connection with nanotechnology and semi-conductors it is still rather uncanny to see that all STMicroelectronics R&D is being done in Catania or elsewhere and that ST's long presence in Malta has so far not produced any offshoots as ancillary products or facilities.
The Malta Council of Science and Technology has recently gone through an overhaul of sorts but even so, its website does not even mention nanotechnology although this is one of the areas of privileged investment according to the Foreign Investment Act.
