"The nanotechnology landscape has changed dramatically in the four years since we launched our premiere nanobusiness events, and the most significant change can be best summed up by the theme for this year's event - Nanotech Goes Public," said Nathan Tinker, co-founder of the NanoBusiness Alliance and Conference Chairman. "This year's program is both varied and extremely focused, resulting in three intensive days of education, presentations and networking opportunities."

On opening day, May 17, NanoBusiness 2006 will present its "Investors Forum Day," and is devoted solely to presentations from currently- and soon-to-be public companies, including Veeco, FEI FEI

Fédération Équestre Internationale.
, NanoInk, NanoOpto, Nanophase, Inframat, Combinatrix, Nanodynamics, NuCryst and many more. "This is the first time that so many publicly traded nanotech companies have presented in the same place at the same time," added Nathan Tinker. "NanoBusiness 2006 gives the investment community the best opportunity to evaluate a broad range of public nanotech companies, to assess mid-stage companies likely to be public in the future, and to get a first look at the most credible emerging companies."

The event shifts gears on May 18th to focus on Public Policy and the commercial impact thereof, including a review of regulatory policy, nanotech intellectual property, investment strategy, and environmental policy. Also on Day 2, NanoBusiness 2006 presents a number of parallel conference tracks, including:
