EuroNanoForum 2013 focuses on the impact nanotechnology is having on solving societal problems in environment, energy and health, and showcases innovation as a driver of economic growth.

The event presents new technologies arising from nanoscience and their applications and discusses potential new end products. Commercialisation and co-operative alliances and schemes that accelerate their deployment are addressed, also considering the other key enabling technologies of advanced materials, nanoelectronics and manufacturing.

The conference programme has four thematic tracks: environment, life sciences, co-operation and commercialisation, industrial applications and nano-engineering. High-profile speakers from industry, government and research will discuss the economic and technological impact of nanotechnologies on European growth.

Some of the speakers at EuroNanoForum 2013 include:

• Máire Geoghegan Quinn, commissioner for research, science and innovation, European Commission
• Seán Sherlock, Ireland's Minister of State for Research and Innovation
