NANOWEEK

 

30 November - 4 December, 2009

 

Nanoweek involved a programme of events across Ireland which aimed to promote the world-class nanoscience activity in Ireland and its contribution to Ireland's Knowledge Economy.

 

Each event aimed to address why nanoscience and nanotechnology is important, why Ireland is well-positioned to excel in this discipline, and what are the next steps at the national level that will advance Ireland's lead position in nanotechnology.
