Executive Summary
With a national standards committee in place and products as diverse as stain-resistant pants, time-release medication, and SPF 40-plus sunscreen on our retail shelves, nanotechnology has moved beyond wild-eyed science and demands serious attention. Universities and associated research labs daily issue news bulletins on the latest scientific advances in their labs, but there are few successful businesses built on nanotech. This is primarily because nanotechnology is an enabling and disruptive technology, not an end in itself. Over the next decade, nanotech will radically change every industry, and the survivors will be the enterprises that identify new opportunities while avoiding declining industries — think about the probable impact on the dry cleaning industry of garments that repel stains and hold a permanent crease.
