This area has three segments that are truly a market for us and two segments that are really more of an outreach program to various groups.
The primary market areas are:
- Post-secondary educational institutions where we can provide trend and career development needs that relate to modification to traditional industries as nanotechnology transforms them;
- Industry clusters where we can provide information about how nanotechnology is affecting the future of their products and processes, and ultimately, their industry; and
- Providing municipalities and other organizations engaged in economic development of rural areas with guidance and resources to not only attract, but to negotiate intelligently with technology-based companies to assure safety of residents and environment. The last two are combined under our societal impact area.
- The outreach areas are
- Engaging K-12 youth with science and engineering;
- Improving science teachers’ understanding of nanotechnology and technology in general.
