Session The Business Paths to Nanotech Futures and Transcending Moore's Law Steve Jurvetson, Draper Fisher Jurvetson Track: Nanotechnology and Hardware Date: Thursday, April 24 Time: 4:30pm - 5:15pm Location: Lafayette/San Tomas/Lawrence TrackBack Jurvetson's presentation considers the question: Of the vast array of industries that will eventually be revolutionized by nanotechnology, which will be early and which will be late? One of the reasons that nanotechnology has relevance, beyond being a simple reference to a length scale, is that much of the learning that compounds at this particular frontier of the unknown has broad applicability across diverse industries and scientific pursuits. Nanotech is the nexus for the sciences. We are entering an era of exponential growth in our capabilities in biotech, molecular engineering, and computing. The cross-fertilization of these formerly discrete domains compounds our rate of learning and our engineering capabilities across the spectrum.
