The Swissnanotech initiative is meant to encourage a dialogue with the Swiss nanotechnology community with a focus on commercialization.

Switzerland has been at the forefront of the nanotechnology development curve, contributing enormously to the field through inventions such as the Atomic Force Microscope, the Scanning Tunneling Microscope and many other groundbreaking discoveries.

Switzerland is committed to retaining this leadership role and continuing to advance this promising field which will benefit countless areas and ultimately human kind. Efficient and effective dialogue is one of the best tools to encourage and identify opportunities as commercialization of scientific developments take place.
