Although nanotechnology deals with the very small - the art and science of manipulating and rearranging molecules to create useful materials, devices and systems - its impact on business will be revolutionary. Within a decade, nanotech is expected be the basis of $1 trillion worth of products in the USA alone and will create anywhere from 800,000 to 2 million jobs. This groundbreaking book provides the savvy investor with: the steps they must take to assess and profit from the nanotech market; relevant information on more than 100 leading nanotech companies - and how to distinguish the real players from the "nano-pretenders"; and a comprehensive methodology for investing in - and profiting from - nanotech in a way that yields market-beating returns while minimising risk.

Investing in Nanotechnology Think Small, Win Big.,

This review is from: Investing in Nanotechnology: Think Small. Win Big (Paperback)
As a person in the industry I thought that it was well written and informative. The reserch into the companies was basic but accurate. I was most impressed that the author found some gems in several of the start ups that are not widely known, till now. If you are not aware of the world of nanotech and what its upside could mean to you, this is an excellent way to get that knowledge.I enjoyed the book and found it a quick read.

Jungle out there for Nano!,
By Donald Hsu (NYC, United States) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Investing in Nanotechnology: Think Small. Win Big (Paperback)
This book is a good summary of 100+ companies in the nanotechnology business. It was published in 2006. Already many firms disappeared. Even with the Merrill Lynch nanotech index on p. 264, there is no sure way to make money. Nano is similar to biotech early stages. Companies spent millions of research dollars on nano, yet at the end, the return on investment is unknown. This is a big challenge for entrepreneurs. Many more research and books will be written in this field. Stay tuned...

The book is a beginning in Nano knowledge,

This review is from: Investing in Nanotechnology: Think Small. Win Big (Paperback)
If you want to get involved into the knowledge of nanotechnology, this is a good beginning. Mr. Uldrich will explain you what is nanotechnology, what are the current applications of the R&D in this industry and which are the companies globally working on it.He presents his outlook (bullish or bearish) in every publicy traded company. Nevertheless is is your job to search for up to date information on companies you are interested.
