(Nanowerk News) The Swiss Innovation Society Ltd. has launched a database with relevant information about safety and risk research of nanotechnology. This database will be updated regularly with scientific and policy information.

|
The Platform “Nano-Regulation” is an project whose activities are
supported by industry, government, academia and non-governmental
organisations. The project was launched in spring 2005 by “The
Innovation Society”
in cooperation with NanoEurope
and the NanoCluster Bodensee.

The
platform “Nano-Regulation” serves as an internationally focussed
Dialogue-platform where relevant regulatory issues of nanotechnology
are discussed. Having learned the “GM-Food” lessons” in the
past the platform is dedicated to a proactive dialogue among
all stakeholders in order to find well-balanced and socially
accepted regulatory solutions to ensure a sustainable nanotechnology
industry.
