Press Release: How big is nanotechnology for Europe? The Commission launches an open consultation

The Commission is launching a wide consultation on its Communication 'Towards a European Strategy for Nanotechnology' in which it proposed an integrated and responsible approach for developing nanosciences and nanotechnologies in Europe. All interested people are encouraged to take part by directly writing to the Commission (rtd-nano-strategy@cec.eu.int) by 30 September 2004 or via an on-line questionnaire (http://www.nanoforum.org). This consultation will help to shape future initiatives in Europe, always with an eye on applications and implications at global level. Nanotechnology is anticipated as the possible key for a next industrial revolution.
