Here’s the abstract of the talk:

Much has been said about the predicted spectacular growth in nanotechnological production in the coming years. In order to sustain such growth, a considerable investment in technological and manufacturing/business infrastructure is needed. Part of that infrastructure is quality-assured metrology and standardisation in nanotechnology. This talk will review national, European and international efforts, particularly addressing nomenclature, metrology, risks and product specifications and including prenormative R&D in nanotechnology.

Information about how to attend this event (if you’re new to SL) can be found at the NanoShow website.
