ADVANTAGES OF NANOTECHNOLOGY:

• By applying Nanotechnology, products can be 5 times as strong, 10 times as efficient, and millions of times compact - or better.

• Products can be designed in days and can be distributed in hours.

• Products can even be Pre-Designed.

While our understanding of Nanotechnology is still crude, the ability to manipulate matter with molecular precision already seems set to eclipse the changes wrought by the information age, changes enabled simply by our ability to manipulate data. These changes will be both incremental and disruptive, and businesses and governments that ignore this increasing wave of change so at their peril.

WHY NANOTECHNOLOGY?

Within a decade, nanotechnology is expected to be the basis of $1 trillion worth of products in the United States alone and will create anywhere from 8, 00,000 to 2 million new jobs. "Nanotechnology will require you to radically rethink what your core business is, who your competitors are, what skills your workforce needs, how to train your employees, and how to think strategically about.

Even though it may sound far off at times, within the decade Nanotech will have huge effects on many practical industries, including manufacturing, health care, energy, agriculture, communications, transportations & electronics.

The industries that nanotechnology will likely disruptively affect in the near term include the following: (Amounts are in Billions of US Dollars).
