Short Course: Risk Management for NanoBusinesses - London

Admin — Mon, 07 Apr 2008 14:08:55 +0100

Short description

Bringing Nanotechnology Products to Market - how to engender public confidence and exceed the requirements of regulators.

Long description

Negative public perceptions and the possibility of a potentially inappropriate regulatory framework could be serious barriers for UK companies in adopting nanotechnology, and may act as a brake on UK competivity.

It is vital that managers in organisations producing nanomaterials embrace a professional approach to risk management as means of increasing public confidence, and also demonstrating to the regulatory bodies that all aspects of risk vs benefits are being properly assessed. This half-day meeting will provide an introduction to risk management techniques for individuals involved in nanotechnology research and development within companies, universities and facilities.

Invited Speakers:

Dr Gwo-Sheng Peng, Industrial Technology Research Institute in Taiwan will discuss the NanoMark certification system established in Taiwan to further encourage domestic manufacturers to develop nanoproducts and upgrade consumers' acceptance of nanoproducts.

Professor Robert G. Lee, Cardiff University ESRC Centre for Business Relationships, Accountability, Sustainability and Society Cardiff University will present on nanotechnology regulation in the UK, and whether regulatory structures for products are well adapted to suit nanomaterials, and the difficulties and uncertainties both in introducing products to the market, and thereafter in their life cycle.

Richard Moore, Manager, Nanomedicine and Lifesciences, Institute of Nanotechnology has spent 20 years on risk management for medical device companies and will discuss the particular challenges for nano businesses and other nano research and development organizations.

Matthew Clark, Science & Technology Divisional Director, La Playa Insurance will describe insurance issues in bringing nano based products to the market.

The latest innovations are being used to bring imaginative, exciting and novel properties to textiles for fashion and industry.

Long description

The latest innovations are being used to bring imaginative, exciting and novel properties to textiles for fashion and industry. These range from scent-embedded textiles, stay-clean textiles, textiles with displays and textiles that can change colour, to lightweight textiles that are so strong they can withstand the impact of a bullet. Many new textiles are also being developed for health, promoting faster healing and enhancing health and well-being.

The aim of the 3rd International conference on Nanotechnology and Smart Textiles for Industry and Fashion is to provide an international platform where a diverse community of professionals from industry, academia and fashion can come together to share information, research findings and practical experiences. The conference will provide introductory and in-depth information on technology in a large spectrum of already realized or just being developed textile applications, and showcase current products.

The use of nanoscale materials is constantly expanding to play a role in an ever increasing number of industries. This can be as the actual product (e.g. electronics, packaging), as a nanocomposite, as an active or functional material, or as part of the manufacturing process (such as a substrate for biomaterials).

Long description

Introduction

This course gives an introduction to the basic concepts that underlie nanotechnology. It explains how nanomaterials are made and characterised, and gives pointers to ways in which these properties will be exploited in the future to make new high added-value products.

Find out about this emerging technology and how it might impact on your business. The course organised by the University of Sheffield is presented by several international specialists including Professor Tony Ryan and Professor Richard Jones who will include examples from their recent research.

Benefits to you and your organisation

Delegates will have a better understanding and appreciation of the scope of nanotechnology and how it can impact on their organisation. Over the course of three stimulating days participants will also have the opportunity to gain a more in-depth understanding of this rapidly expanding technology field to help them interact with nanotechnology researchers and suppliers.

Who should attend?

This training course is for anyone working in the chemical or related industries, aimed particularly at practising chemical scientists who want to learn about the potential nanotechnology promises and to assess opportunities for their business.

Long description

Animal testing is costly and there is a great deal of research on finding viable and effective alternatives (new methods that refine existing tests by minimizing animal distress, reducing animal usage, or replacing whole animal tests). Despite large reductions in animal testing since the early 1980s due to improved in vitro methods, levels remain high (over 3 million procedures in 2006) and results cannot always be extrapolated to humans.

The application of nanotechnology is currently revolutionizing medicine and this two-day conference, the first of its kind in Europe, will examine the role nanotechnology could also play in improving or refining the development of alternatives to animal testing whilst maintaining safety. Themes will include:

* a review of some of the most promising human cell-based in vitro models
* novel lab-on-a-chip and bioreactor systems for screening, toxicology and targeting studies
* surface modification at the nanoscale to improve biosensors and in vitro test systems
* potential new strategies for applying nanotechnology to alternatives
* the role of the European Centre for the Validation of Alternative Methods (ECVAM)

The conference will be of particular interest to those involved in:

* pharmaceutical, medical device and cosmetic development and testing
* environmental and food testing
* regulation
* organizations interested in the development of animal alternatives.

NanoBeam, founded in 2002, has developed breakthrough technology to produce high performance and cost effective electron beam lithography tools. Our innovative designs significantly reduce product cost and therefore the ownership cost without compromising on accuracy or automation.

Small machine size, excellent resistance to stray field, advanced vibration tracking, and low power dissipation result in low cleanroom requirements.

Outstanding mechanical rigidity and fast stage and beam deflection settling result in higher throughput in mix-and-match and direct write. The modern architecture requires fewer mechanical and electronic system components, which simplifies service and makes our products very reliable.
