The EuroNanoForum 2013 Nanotechnology Innovation: From research to commercialisation – the bridge to Horizon2020 conference is proposed to be held in Dublin during the Irish presidency of the European Union. It will be organised by Enterprise Ireland, the Government organisation responsible for the development and growth of Irish enterprises in world markets. The conference will be held from June 18th to June 20th 2013.
