Commercializing Nanotechnology: The NanoTerra approach

Nano-Terra, Inc. was founded for the purpose of taking the nanotechnology innovations and science of Professor George Whitesides of Harvard ‘from the lab into the market place’. Our business model focuses on establishing long-term collaborations with leading manufacturers and marketers in areas that will create high value for them.  The collaborations are centered around Nano Terra’s patented technology platform and core expertise rooted in the science of surface chemistry, self-assembly, soft lithography, and microfluidics developed by Professor George Whitesides.  Nano-Terra uses this platform to create new functionalities in materials and devices and novel methods of fabrication. These benefits extend its partners’ capabilities in new and powerful ways – creating both new products and more efficient and cost-effective processes.
