Assessing the future regulatory landscape for nanotechnology in consumer products.
Two day Intertech-Pira conference plus workshop.

Currently, there are over 400 consumer products on the market today that use nanotechnology. In 2005, emerging nanotechnology was incorporated into roughly US$30 billion in global manufactured goods. By 2014, that number is expected to increase to US$2.6 trillion, or about 15% of global output.*

Industries ranging from food and beverage to pharmaceutical have already allocated large resources into R&D to find out how nanotechnology can benefit them. Emerging start-ups with innovative nanotechnology patents are drawing investors at record speed. Would new regulations choke these creative companies while allowing larger, better funded firms to rein in competition?

This program will bring together regulators from various impacted industries combined with views from multiple industries. Scientific findings will be presented including the latest nanotoxicology reports and global regulation initiatives from Asia and the EU for nanotechnology leaders to discuss and present suggestions on where consistency and compromise is needed.

Intertech-Pira is an industry leader in bringing you the latest breakthroughs in nanotechnology and regulations. Join other industry leaders at this innovative conference as we bring these two forward looking topics together for the first time!
