Matching Buyers and Sellers via TechConnect Summit 2009

Where the extensive Nanotech 2009 Conference addresses the issues, trends and challenges emerging in nanotechnology, the adjoining TechConnect Summit will address the business issues required to match buyers and sellers in order to bring products to market.

The TechConnect Summit provides a forum for Fortune 500 executives to discuss their nano, micro, bio, and clean technology needs, with the academic and research community, who attend the event in search of projects related to their research. This exchange of real-world, corporate needs, and research streamlines R&D activities for fortune 500 companies, and helps bring products and solutions to market more rapidly. Additional information on the TechConnect Summit is available at: www.techconnect.org/Summit2009/.
