"Now in our fourth year, our Livingston Nanotechnology Conference has clearly met a market need by offering a nanotechnology event designed for investment professionals that was created by investment professionals," said Scott Livingston, Managing Director, Axiom Capital Management, Inc. "At our largest and most comprehensive conference to date, our attendees will meet and interact with decision makers from America's largest companies, CEOs of leading public growth companies, fast moving startups, key decision makers from top public and private investment institutions, and other influential members of the nanotechnology community. The world has changed quite a bit since we last convened, and with a new administration in Washington, a renewed need for clean and green energy self sufficiency, Wall Street in disarray and continued rapid advances in discovery and development of nanotechnologies, we feel that this event is quite well timed"
