Indian nano-tech group in US to create big splash |
|
(Nanowerk News) A group of Indian Americans well placed in the nanotechnology industry have formed The Indus Nanotechnology Association (TINA) to create a bigger impact in the market.
|
|
TINA arose from the Nanotechnology and Nano-Bio Convergence Conference held here last week, where seven of the 14 featured speakers were Indian Americans in academics, research, government and industry.
|
|
TINA will be coordinated by conference organiser Thomas Abraham, president of Innovative Research and Products, a Connecticut firm conducting industry and market analysis of new generation technologies.
|
|
Abraham is also the chairman of Global Organisation of People of Indian Origin (GOPIO).
|
|
Other initiators of TINA include P. Somasundaran of Columbia University, Brij Moudgil of University of Florida and Ganesh Skandan, chief of NEI Corp in New Jersey.
|
|
The new group will provide a platform for Indian origin nano-technology researchers, technologists, entrepreneurs and investors to exchange ideas and provide networking opportunities to advance the field and create new areas of business.
