THE ROAD AHEAD: A SMALL NANOTECH COMPANY'S PERSPECTIVE

摘要

Founded in 1997 as a nanopowder producer, NEI Corporation has gone through a transformation to a developer and manufacturer of value-added nanomaterials and nanoadditives. The road to a sustainable and profitable entity in the long run is replete with challenges, some of which include cost competitiveness, product consistency, unique product identity, preferably very different from those manufactured by large multinational corporations, and effective management. This paper provides a perspective on the evolving nanomaterials market.
