ConferenceMonday, December 4, 2017 to Thursday, December 7, 2017Hong Kong http://www.nanosmat-asia.com We are pleased to invite you to participate in the 3rd International Conference on Surfaces, Coatings and Nanostructured Materials – Asia (NANOSMAT-Asia) to be held at the City University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong during 4-7 December 2017. NANOSMAT is an established name in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology conferences. The first ever NANOSMAT conference was organised and held in Portugal in 2005. NANOSMAT conferences provide a unique platform for discussing key aspects of materials-related Nanoscience and Nanotechnology. The maiden NANOSMAT-Asia was held in Wuhan, China during March 2013. The second NANOSMAT-Asia was held in Kayseri in Turkey in 2015. NANOSMAT-Asia is a biennial event and it attracts delegates from academia, industry and research institutes to network, exchange ideas and gain new insights on the forefront of materials, processing and nanotechnology related applications. The event will also host an exhibition. One of the highlights of NANOSMAT-Asia will be the plenary lecture by some Nobel Laureate. During NANOSMAT-Asia in 2013 Nobel Laureate Professor Dr Peter Grunberg (Germany) delivered the plenary lecture.

ConferenceMonday, December 4, 2017 to Wednesday, December 6, 2017Dubai http://www.nanotechme.com/ From its origin as Nanotech Dubai, the event grows for this years 2017 edition to become the Nanotech Middle East 2017 Exhibition and Conference to be held in the state-of-the-art venue, Dubai International Convention & Exhibition Centre (DICEC) / Dubai World Trade centre - www.dwtc.com, from 4 to 6 December 2017. The successful conclusion of the previous Nanotech Conference and Exhibition editions were rewarding. The quality and number of Nanotech academia professionals and industry specialists who attended the three days event proved to be very effective and added a positive and encouraging facet to the existing status of the event. The organising committee was determined and motivated to extend the event scale through taking the important move to bring the event to the Dubai International Convention & Exhibition Centre, label it as the main Nanotech event in Middle East, North Africa, Africa and South Asia Region and aiming to make it as one of the main Nanotechnology event, Exhibition and Conference, globally. Nanotech Middle East 2017 conference will present a very comprehensive scientific program highlighting the latest topics and covers all frontier topics in nanotechnology. The conference includes plenary lectures and invited talks by eminent personalities from around the world in addition to contributed papers both oral and poster presentations. It brings together leading scientists, researchers, engineers, practitioners, technology developers and policy makers in nanotechnology to exchange information on their latest research progress, innovation and business opportunities. It's among the most important events in terms of international regulatory policies and it's opened to the participation of private companies. It's unique venue for companies to promote equipment and technology.
