2021 NNI Strategic Planning Stakeholder Workshop: Charting the Path Forward
VIRTUAL EVENT
January 11-13, 2021
Daily runtime: 11AM – 3PM ET
Over the past 20 years, the National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI) has supported nanotechnology discovery, development, and deployment, and has nurtured the strong ecosystem that exists today. Building on this foundation, nanoscience will underpin a wide range of advanced technologies and enable solutions to challenges into the future. Conversations at this workshop will identify effective mechanisms to advance research and development, strategies for communication, and priority topics to shape future directions.
This event will take place virtually. REGISTER NOW!
