National Nanotechnology Initiatives
Welcome to National Nanotechnology Initiatives. In recent years, we are seeing that nations around the globe are funding nanotechnology programs in record amounts.
All across the globe, nations are pouring large amounts of money into nanotechnology research and development. At stake is both benefits and perils. The benefits of developing advanced nanotechnology is that the country will be able to clean its waterways and its soil, will be able to enhance its products into longer lasting and lighter, will be able to provide cheap fuel, etc. The perils come in the form of advanced weapons which are much, much more powerful than the atomic weapons that ended World War II and endured throughout the Cold War era.
Close to home, the National Nanotechnology Initiative is the federal nanoscale science, engineering, and technology research and development program for the United States. The American initiative has four goals…
1) To maintain a world-class research and development (R&D) program;
2) To facilitate technology transfer;
3) To develop educational resources, a skilled workforce, and supporting research infrastructure and tools; and
4) To support responsible development of nanotechnology.

National Nanotechnology Initiatives is a look at nanotechnology initiatives from nation states, mostly the United States. We are compiling a National Nanotechnology Initiatives Report, however, which covers around a dozen national government initiatives. We also have uncovered nanotechnology videos, nanotechnology articles, and everyday conversations about nanotechnology in general.
