Good things are coming in very small packages
Abstract:
Israeli universities and industries are investing hundreds of millions of dollars in nanotech, and scientists in many disciplines have gotten together to find ways of applying their knowledge. Within the past three years, the number of nanotech research groups here has increased from 210 to 325, and the number of companies active in the field from 45 to 75, according to Dan Wilensky, head of the Israel National Nanotechnology Initiative (INNI).
Thus Israel felt ready to host its first international nanotechnology conference - called "NanoIsrael: Showcasing Israeli Nanotechnology" (nano-israel.org). The two-day event, to open on March 30 in Jerusalem's Inbal Hotel and organized by Kenes, will attract world-class experts, investors, businessmen and governmental representatives from Israel and abroad, and will include not only lectures and over 300 poster sessions but also a large exhibition.
