NSTI Nanotechnology Excellence Awards

Introduction

The NSTI Nanotechnology Excellence Awards program recognizes outstanding participants in the nanotechnology community for both scientific, industrial impact and entrepreneurial excellence.

NSTI Fellow Awards

NSTI Fellows Awards are issued to individuals for Outstanding Contributions towards the Advancement of the International NSTI Nanotechnology, Microtechnology and Biotechnology Community.

Selection Criteria

Winners of awards are determined through an expert peer review process consisting of academia, government, corporate and investment experts in nanotechnology and its related fields.

Award Track Categories

The Nanotechnology Excellence Awards program consists of two tracks:

Excellence in Scientific Research and Technology Development in Nanotechnology
Nominees must be presenting a paper (oral or poster) at the 2009 Nanotech Conference
Excellence in Industrial/Entrepreneurial Impact of Nanotechnology
Nominees should be presenters in the 2009 Program in either:
- Nanotech Ventures (Early Stage Company)
- TechConnect Summit (Individual Patent or IP Portfolio)

Eligibility Criteria

To be eligible for consideration in the NSTI awards program, a nominee must be an accepted oral or poster presenter in the 2009 Nanotech Conference, NSTI Nanotech Ventures, or TechConnect Summit.

Nomination Procedure

Organizations may make only one nomination annually for the NSTI Nanotechnology Excellence Awards program for each category. Nominations should be submitted online no later than March 23. Because NSTI already maintains a database on preliminary review of all submitted research papers, technologies, companies and IP, the nomination process requires very basic information.

2009 nominations open in January 2009. Please bookmark this page, and check back at that time.
