INL Summit
Fotos
10/19/2017 - 10/20/2017
Theatro Circo, Braga
The third edition of the INL Summit takes place on October 19th and 20th, at the Theatro Circo, in the city of Braga. The theme of the summit is “Nanotechnology: The new economy”. This is the largest Portuguese annual initiative on nanotechnology, organised by INL - International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory. The event features various national and international academics, industrials, governmental bodies, economists, investors and entrepreneurs, who will debate the impact and contributions of nanotechnology and how it is reshaping and transforming the future of the world economy, as it brings together the digital, physical and biological worlds.
Trends, case studies, challenges and the most cutting-edge developments in the application of nanotechnology in different fields will be presented, including topics such as “Science not Fiction!”, “Nanotechnology and the 4th Industrial Revolution” and Turning Nanotechnology into Business” on the first day of the event. Topics for the second day include “Nanotechnology, Arts and Education”, with a debate about the impact of nanotechnology on the economy.
As nanotechnology begins to have a larger presence in our daily lives, it introduces significant and swift changes in the way society produces, consumes, communicates and lives. Cellular implants, nano-machines that can navigate into the human body to identify and eliminate virus, bacteria or cancer cells, 3D printing of human organs, ultra-resistant and self-repairing materials, subcutaneous sensors, nano-optics applied to augmented reality and other innovations are one step away from being created in a near future.
The International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory is the main Portuguese hub in the field and one of the largest in the world in nanotechnology R&D for the benefit of society, acting in four strategy areas: health, food industry, environment and nano-electronics. Multidisciplinary teams made up of member of 28 countries work side by side in a multicultural atmosphere.
