Smith, Flexible Medical Systems, LLC; William Spanks, Florida Turbine Technologies; Tihamer Toth-Fejel, General Dynamics; and Jim Von Ehr, Zyvex Corporation.

According to Tihamer Toth-Fejel of General Dynamics, "This conference concentrates on nanotech that matters; from nanoparticles and metrology to nanomachines and nanoCAD software - everything to prepare you for the coming nanomanufacturing revolution."

Susan Sackman of Medtronics adds, "Companies on the cutting edge of technology that manufacture innovative products need to continually drive new solutions. The challenge is to determine how that can be done. The real value of this event is getting to see what others are doing not only at universities, but in every industry from medical to aerospace to telecommunications. It's a chance to collaborate with experts from around the world and develop synergy with others that are focused on micromanufacturing."
