RUSNANOTECH 2010 - III Nanotech International Forum In Moscow

III Nanotechnology International Forum RUSNANOTECH 2010 will be held in Moscow Expocentre on November 1–3, 2010.

At the various sections offered under the Forum Science & Technology and Business Programs, expo visitors can gain information on promising nanotech research, and, more importantly, receive a roadmap to its successful commercialization, effective investment  generation, and the creation of market demand for nanotech products.

Nanotechnology International Prize RUSNANOPRIZE awarding is taking place during the Forum. The Prize is awarded on a yearly basis to researchers whose nanotechnology discoveries and innovations have been applied to production as well as to companies that practically implemented them in one of the following fields: NanoElectronics, NanoMaterials, NanoBiotechnology and NanoDiagnostics. 

In 2009, Nanotechnology International Prize RUSNANOPRIZE in the field of NanoElectronics was awarded to professor Leonid Keldysh (Russia) for pioneering research of semiconductor superlattices and tunneling phenomenon in semiconductors, widely used in nanostructure technology for nanoelectronic devices, especially in the molecular beam epitaxy, to professor Alfred Y. Cho (USA) for pioneering research and development of the molecular beam epitaxy, especially for nanoheterostructure technology widely used in nanoelectronics, as well as to RIBER S.A. (France) for development of molecular beam epitaxy equipment. In 2010 the Prize will be awarded in the field of «NanoDiagnostics».

Rusnanotech Forum Fund for the Nanotechnology Development (Rusnanotech Forum Fund) was established on January 26, 2010. The Fund activity is focused on nanoindustry development in Russia and nanotechnologies and innovations popularization worldwide. 

According to the resolution of the RUSNANO Supervisory Council and Board of Directors, the organization of the annual Nanotechnology International Forum RUSNANOTECH is assigned to Rusnanotech Forum Fund.
