Where do we stand Where do we stand in Europe?in Europe?
Enjoys a strong position in terms of producing knowledge in nanotechnology (e.g. publications)
Weaker in transforming this knowledge into products and services (e.g. patents, start-ups)
Europe already has a commercial deficit for high-tech products of around €23 billion per year
Few “centres of excellence” on the scale of those being developed in other regions e.g. the USA
Lower level of private R&D funding from industry in comparison to e.g. the USA and Japan

R&D: Building the R&D: Building the MomentumMomentum
European public investment in nanotechnology R&D should increase by a factor of 3 by 2010
Focus upon transforming our knowledge into wealth generating products and processes
Reinforce the next FP for added-value via critical mass, transnational collaboration and competition
Effective coordination of national programmes with both OMC and ERA-NET mechanisms
Bring public and private stakeholders together to strengthen roadmap and foresighting activities

Infrastructure: Infrastructure: European “Poles of European “Poles of
Excellence”Excellence” Europe needs a coherent system of infrastructure
for R&D in nanotechnology Measures needed to maximise the added-value of
existing infrastructure, in particular, to help SMEs Existing infrastructure should be examined and
mapped to identify most urgent needs Where needed, dedicated Europe nanotechnology
infrastructure with critical mass should be built All financing mechanisms should be explored e.g.
European Investment Bank, Structural Funds, etc

Integrating the Societal Integrating the Societal DimensionDimension
Due attention should be paid to the integrating societal aspects into nanotechnology R&D
Europe should pursue an open and proactive approach to governance in nanotechnology R&D
A dialogue with EU citizens and consumers should be encouraged to promote informed judgement
The Commission reaffirms its commitment to ethical principles
The responsible and transparent development of nanotechnology is essential for public confidence

ProtectionProtection
A high level of public health, safety, environmental and consumer protection requires: Identification of safety concerns (both real and
perceived) and action at the earliest stage Toxicological and ecotoxicological data and
evaluation of human/environmental exposure Adjustment, if necessary, of risk assessment
procedures for issues of nanotechnology Integration of risk assessment at all stages of
the life cycle of the technology

A Further Step: International A Further Step: International CooperationCooperation
Encourage international debate on issues such as public health, safety, environment, consumer protection, risk assessment, metrology, norms
Provide access to knowledge to economically less developed countries to contribute towards the prevention of any “knowledge apartheid”
Promote the monitoring and sharing of information related to the scientific, technological, economical and social development of nanotechnology
Define an international “code of good conduct” for the responsible development of nanotechnology
