Special Thanks
Special thanks for your interest in NanoInnovation
edition 2017
The 2017 edition of NanoInnovation, Conference and Exhibition, is over.
The organizers, AIRI and NanoItaly Association, want to express their warm thanks to all the participants who made Nanoinnovation 2017 a successful event.
The Event has seen the presence of about 1150 participants, who accepted the invitation to join us.
The technical-scientific sessions have been proposed and organized by 23 co-organizers, whose contribution is warmly acknowledged. They fully understood and interpreted at the best the bottom-up principle, which is traditionally the structuring method of our Event.
We are particularly indebted with all the colleagues participating in the scientific sessions, from the more 70 chairpersons, who managed at the best the dense program of Nanoinnovation, comprising 4 tutorial lectures, 1 welcome session, 3 plenary sessions, 13 keynote lectures, 54 technical symposia, 8 special session, 2 poster sessions, 1 round table, 4 multi-sessions workshops, and 4 satellite events, to the more than 300 speakers who shared with us their knowledge and expertise, filling of interesting contents the scientific program.
We warmly thank the 27 exhibitors, to the 28 industrial sponsors and to the 5 patronages, whose contribution allowed us to keep Nanoinnovation a free participation event open to all people interested in nano-bio-technologies.
Our deepest appreciation to Sapienza University of Rome for the kind hospitality, support and contribution; We are, in particular, in debt with the Faculty of Civil and Industrial Engineering (ICI) for giving us the possibility to use its Renaissance Cloister and buildings as meeting area, and with the Department of Basic and Applied Sciences for Engineering (SBAI) for the logistic support given during the preparation of NanoInnovation 2017.
We are also indebted with:
The Agency for the Promotion of European Research (APRE), that organized the networking sessions (B2B meetings and an Elevator Pitch session) with more than 150 attending participants;
The Italian Trade Agency (ITA), that supported the invitation of a delegation comprising outstanding experts coming from 4 different foreign countries (Poland, Switzerland, South Korea and Taiwan);
Fondazione Bracco that supported the Nanoinnovation’s Got Talent reserved to young nanotechnology researchers (<35 years old).
Due to the active participation of attendees and to the great deal of dedication by speakers, exhibitors, supporters and organizers, NanoInnovation 2017 has reached the original purpose of bringing together entrepreneurs, academics, researchers, managers, students and investors. We hope that the overview of the nanotech world offered by this Event will encourage the dialogue among the different protagonists helping to build an integrated community, active and cooperating in the field of micro and nanotechnologies.
We hope that your participation has been fruitful and we wait to receive feedbacks about this event, in order to ensure that the next NanoInnovation Conference, scheduled to take place
from 11th to 14th of September 2018,
would suit at the best your expectations.
See you next year!!!
