June 25-26, 2011, Mountain View, California

Main Conference Web site

Archived webcast of June 25-26 conference

Thanks to all for a successful summer conference! We're still hearing about some great connections and synergies made at the gathering that will help further transformative nanotech. With the addition of NASA-Ames Singularity University grad students, as well as 20Under20 Thiel Fellows, there was standing room only on Sunday afternoon; we intimately filled the 236-occupant venue room, with overflow chat in the hall 'Alley'. Some quotes that rolled in just hours after the conference was over:

  • "Great weekend spent with brilliant minds sharing their plans and hopes for nanotech in the future." —Louise Gold, Institute for Optimal Living
  • "Excellent speakers and a great opportunity to share ideas with like-minded attendees." —Stephen Fowkes, Nanopolymer Systems
  • "Great conference, and especially a great set of speakers!" —Bruce Smith, Nanorex
  • "Engaging for me, a good two days. Well worth the time and money." —Robert Chew, Private Investor, Singapore
  • "One of the best I have attended - informative, interesting, and definitely worth the trip." —Ravi Pandya, MS Seattle, donor since 1990
  • "Awesome conference. Just about all presentations were top notch. Please keep doing this." —Peter Voss, Smart Action AI
  • "Awesome conference, great discussions with very interesting people!" —Dr. Randal Koene, Halcyon Molecular
  • "A very meaty program (with very healthy snacks!)" —John Chisholm, CEO
  • "Had an awesome time! +++ will visit another conference from this team!" —Paul Bohm, Founder of Mjam GmbH & BBQ
  • "Inspiring!" —Lerwin Liu, Nanostart and Zyvex Asia
  • "Best meeting of minds I've ever been a part of." —David Atkins-Maters, Nanomaterials & Nanomedicine Research Lab, UCSD
