The EntreTech Forum Presents 'Nanotechnology - Timing Is Everything - Knowing When to Start Commercializing Academic Research Projects'

Boston, MA | Posted on December 12th, 2008

The recent and rapid development of Nanotechnology is poised to be one of the most significant developments in science of the emerging century. As a class of technology, it is unusually cross-disciplinary. Current applications in advanced sensor, diagnostic and materials technologies merely hint at many thousands of potential future uses.

Metro-Boston's tech-oriented university infrastructure has pioneered and powered the development of advanced nanotech research locally, but it is in the commercial applications derived from that research that nanotech's future promise resides.

About The EntreTech Forum
The EntreTech Forum consists of moderated monthly panel discussions on emerging academic research and the commercialization of this technology. It was designed for those interested in technology innovation and marketing collaboration and networking with fellow entrepreneurs, business and government executives, investors, and technology researchers.

The technology-innovation presentations feature entrepreneurial and corporate accomplishments along commercialization pathways with discussions of tech transfer and technology incubation and research from universities, industry and government. The multi-disciplinary subjects of raising and utilizing different forms of capital, building alliances and structuring deals are included as part of the programming, and serve as tools for the entrepreneur and researcher to commercialize science and technology.

The EntreTech Forum is an affiliate of Northeastern University's School of Technological Entrepreneurship (STE) and is directed by a governing board of business principals, investors, and researchers.
