Big Pharma Is Missing the Nanotechnology Opportunity
Abstract:
The U.S. National Institutes of Health counts nanomedicine as one of its top five priorities, the National Cancer Institute committed $144 million to nanotechnology research in October 2004, and 40% of nanotech venture capital since 1998 has gone to life sciences start-ups. Yet despite nanotechnology's promise in improving how drugs are developed and delivered, major pharmaceutical companies are committing almost
no money or people to nanotechnology research -- exposing them to strategic
risks, according to a new report from Lux Research entitled "Why Big Pharma Is
Missing the Nanotech Opportunity."
