Research
and Markets has announced the addition of the "The Global Market for
Nanotechnology" report to their offering.
Nanotechnology continues to be a thriving area of R&D in 2008. Public
funding of nanotechnology worldwide in 2008 was approximately $6.7 with over
US$5 billion initially committed by the Russian government and a raft of new
initiatives and centres in countries such as UAE, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Israel,
Cuba and Brazil.
Nanotechnology is fast becoming an important business area for companies in
a diverse range of industries, from oil exploration to optical cabling. Private
investment in 2008 was approximately $5.6 billion, with the electronics and
medical sectors set to witness the greatest returns over the next 5 years. The
