Over the next decade, nanotechnology has the potential to influence every aspect of our lives, including our energy, food, medicines, water, buildings, and much, much more. According to a published report by BCC Research, the market value of the worldwide nanomedicine industry is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 12.5% to reach $130.9 billion by the fiscal year 2016. The acceptance and application of nanotechnology to everyday products is a foreshadowing of the growth expected across a multitude of fields including medicine, devices, and diagnostics.

"Liquidia's success continues to be a shining example of what is possible for startup companies that make roots in North Carolina", said Jim Roberts, Director of Business Development at COIN, "Through this panel we want to explore the opportunities that exist for our next generation of innovators and how they too can find success in North Carolina".
