• “My congratulations to IANANO for convening the first set of workshops intended to move faculty and businesses toward systematizing the preparation of students to enter the nanotechnology workforce. It is clear that work at the nano level is going to be pivotal to development in a wide variety of industries. If the U.S. is to be competitive in this developing area, it must have the professionals who will be able to move the industries and the research forward. The workshops have begun that process. Personally, I was able to make contacts among several counterparts in academia that I believe I can use to establish partnerships that have the potential to move forward our own efforts to provide nanotechnology training to our students.”Dr. David Johnson, Chair, Dept. of Math, Science, Computer National Hispanic University, San Jose, CA

• “The workshop was relevant to my job responsibilities and interests today” Dr. Gary Edson, CEO NanoPharmatix, Walnut Creek, CA

• “The workshop was excellent in that it fused the academic & vocational elements of emerging technologies. This really is what I need with my job as professor at a community college.”Prof. Jim Wolf, College of the Canyons, Santa Clarita, CA

• “This course was thought out well with a good mixture of business and technology” Mr. Nitin Shah, VP Business DevelopmentAviza Technology, Inc., Scotts Valley, CA

• “Excellent program, please continue to educate, promote and lead the research and development of Nanotechnology.”Luis Herrera, Assistant ProfessorGlendale Community College, Glendale, CA

• “Very well designed and organized.”Dr. Alin Ciochina, Dean, Applied Science & TechnologySan Joaquin Delta College Stockton, CA

• “I myself have learned a great deal from attending this program as well as the whole conference. Visiting the nano-characterization lab at Staford University is an eye-opening experience for me too.”Dr. Guangqiang Jiang, Material ScientistAlfred Mann Foundation for Scientific ResearchSanta Clarita, CA

• “The new generation of young engineering students should be exposed to promises and opportunities of this technology in order to be able to expand the present state of the technology and move toward processing and manufacturing challenges of this new field. What ICNT is doing is a step toward the right direction that should be supported by both private and public sectors that will be affected by development of this new field.”Prof. Mohammad PanahandehDiablo Valley College, Pleasant Hill, CA

• “The courses on start-up, IPO, IP protection and VC firm presentation was excellent. The speakers did an excellent job”Dr. Zia Karim, Director, Business Development & TechnologyAIXTRON, Inc. Sunnyvale, CA

• “I would like to see more Nano related organization would send their workers to these training to broaden the employees’ views at their workplace as well as the industry’s practice.”James Lequynh, CEOQenergyx, LLC, Houston, TX

• “Training the Trainer is a great idea. The Stanford trip was excellent. The lectures were great.”“This workshop is essential for my own well being. It gave me the confidence to write a multi-million dollar proposal to establish a research program in Nanotechnology. I am working steadily to achieve the goals of that proposal.”Dr. Mazen Al-Khatib, Associate ProfessorDepartment of Electrical & Computer EngineeringUniversity of South Alabama.
