"As a global venture capital company specialized in nanotechnology, we see how important this program is to strengthen and expand the superb international position already held by Germany as one of the world's preeminent nanotechnology nations," said Marco Beckmann, CEO of Nanostart. "More and more countries are recognizing the pivotal role of nanotechnology in economic growth and prosperity and are thus providing active government support. The race to determine the leading nanotech economies of the future is already well underway."

There is universal agreement that nanotechnology offers immense potential for the future, a future which can already be seen taking shape now in the portfolio companies in which Nanostart has invested. Among these companies are some of the ground-breaking technologies which the German government has specifically cited as "already today providing important services."
