6 Strategies

24 Programs

Aims of the NT Program (Strategic Action Plan)

• Secure sustainable growth potential – by developing new nanotechnologies and products– By establishing major infrastructures for NT research

within 5 years, 2016-2020– By improving world top level competitiveness by 2020

• Develop world class technologies

• Strengthen the global competitiveness of Malaysian industries – by developing key NT technologies and combining

them with existing technologies such as IT, BT and ET.

• Improve the quality of life – through improving diagnostic and therapeutic

technologies, – solving environmental problems, – establishing high speed communication networks, and – developing new energy conversion/storage materials.

6 Strategy and 24 National Program

The goals of National Nanotechnology Program are to:

world-class R&D

programs;
