New York, NY, April 20, 2006 - The NanoBusiness Alliance, the world's leading nanotechnology trade association, today announced that its “Investors Forum Day” will debut on Wednesday, May 17th as part of the 5th annual NanoBusiness 2006 conference and exhibition, to be held May 17-19, 2006 at the Marriott Marquis hotel in New York City.

As part of Investors Forum Day at NanoBusiness 2006, over 20 publicly and privately-held companies will make presentations to hundreds of attendees, focusing on their technologies, products, markets and corporate strategies. This marks the first time so many publicly-traded nanotechnology companies have presented in the same place at the same time.
“As nanotechnology is a growth industry, venture capitalists, government agencies, corporations and other investors have already invested billions of dollars, and there’s no sign of this trend slowing down,” said Vincent Caprio, Vice President of the NanoBusiness Alliance and Event Director. “We’re proud that NanoBusiness 2006 will offer our attendees an unparalleled opportunity to review the comprehensive landscape of nanotech’s most promising companies.”
Investors Forum Day will get underway with nanotechnology-focused keynotes from pioneers at three major corporations, including:
- Michael Idelchik – VP of Advanced Technology, GE Global Research
- Nabil Y. Sakkab – Sr. VP, Procter & Gamble
- Vida Iiderem – VP Embedded Systems, Motorola
Unlike other conferences’ “speed dating” presentation schedules, NanoBusiness 2006 continues throughout the day with 30-minute, in-depth presentations from CEOs and top executives, as well as prime networking opportunities for investors to meet face-to-face with the executives.
