Executive Summary Putting Nanotechnology on the Map Nanotechnology has the potential to play a key role in local economic development throughout the world over the coming decades. The emergence of nanotechnology clusters, where companies are linked by common markets, labor pools, and similar technologies, is already well-underway in the United States. Whether these clusters will gain performance advantages through co-location and have significant impacts on local economies is yet to be determined, but the identification of emerging pockets of activity is an important first step in the development of strategies to improve local innovation and stimulate employment growth. These emerging clusters may benefit from place-based economic development strategies already being used in states such as California, Texas, Oregon, Arizona, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut. To explore how and where nanotechnology is being developed and commercialized in the United States, the Project on Emerging Nanotechnologies (PEN) has compiled publicly available data and created an inventory of maps that can be used to examine the locations of more than 800 companies, universities, government laboratories, and other organizations located in the United States and working in nanotechnology. The total includes 637 companies, 138 university and government laboratories, and 45 other types of organizations. Entries have been mapped based on their 3-digit zip code (the first three digits of their 5-digit zip code). Figure I. Number of companies, universities, government laboratories, and/or organizations working in nanotechnology and located in each 3-digit zip code Nano Metro (820 Total). 1

In the following analysis, states and, so called, 3-digit zip code Nano Metros are ranked based on the number of entries they contain. In addition, 8 sectors are used for the classification of entries, with each entry getting one sector based on its primary focus of work as determined by its website. Companies are split into the following 6 sectors: Electronics; Energy and Environmental Applications; Imaging and Microscopy; Materials; Medicine and Health; and Tools and Instruments. Universities and government laboratories are grouped under: Academic and Government Research. Nonprofits, think tanks, and professional organizations are simply grouped under the sector: Organization. Maps for each sector and an interactive Google-based map are also available in the Maps section. More information on the methodology and sectors and a document containing the data used in the maps are available in the appendix. Conclusions In all, 47 of 50 states and the District of Columbia have been found to contain at least one company, university, government laboratory, or organization working in nanotechnology, showing that nanotechnology activities are occurring throughout the United States. The top 4 states overall (each with over 50 entries) are: California, Massachusetts, New York, and Texas. These states also make up the top 4 states with companies and universities and government labs working in nanotechnology. California, New York, Ohio and the District of Columbia have the most organizations working in nanotechnology. The top 5 Nano Metros (each with over 20 entries) are: San Jose, CA; Boston, MA; San Francisco, CA; Oakland, CA; and Middlesex-Essex, MA. The top 3 sectors of companies working in nanotechnology (each with over 100 entries) are: materials, medicine and health, and tools and instruments. The number of universities and government laboratories working in nanotechnology is also significant, with 138 identified. Getting on the Map Users are encouraged to use the form provided in the appendix to submit new information or changes. For questions on methodology or analysis, please contact Natalie Chin at natalie.chin@wilsoncenter.org. 2

Interactive Map An interactive, web-based Google map of companies, universities, government laboratories, and organizations working in nanotechnology is also available, indicating locations of entries with some introduced margin of error. Addresses are accurate to the zip code - locations were slightly randomized to ensure locations did not overlap. Also included for each entry is a link to its website. Pins representing the location of each entry are color-coded based on the sector to which that entry belongs. Color coding is as follows: 1. Academic and Government Research - Purple 2. Electronics - Orange 3. Energy and Environmental Applications Blue 4. Imaging and Microscopy - Yellow 5. Materials - Navy 6. Medicine and Health - Green 7. Organization White 8. Tools and Instruments - Red Users are able to zoom in on particular Nano Metros in the United States and examine the different companies, universities, government laboratories, and/or organizations located there. Clicking on an individual pin provides the entry name, sector and a link to its website. The interactive map is available here: www.nanotechproject.org/121. 18

Appendix I. Methodology Companies, universities, government laboratories, and other organizations included in these maps have been found via publicly available data listed through: www.nanovip.com, an online directory of nanotechnology companies; The 2007 SmallTimes Business Directory; An article in Chemical & Engineering News, entitled Building Up Nanotech Research (April 19, 2007); and Research conducted in conjunction with PEN s Consumer Products Inventory (available here: http://www.nanotechproject.org/44). Entries located in the United States have been the primary focus of this project. Excluded from the maps are any financial/capital venture firms. Information included in the inventory has been re-confirmed via the company, university, government laboratory, or organization s website. For an entry to have been included, nanotechnology is mentioned in some capacity on its website. We have made no attempt to verify company, university, government laboratory, or organization claims about their work in nanotechnology. A. Sectors Each company, university, government laboratory, and organization is assigned a Sector. Each entry was given only one sector, based on its primary focus of work as determined by its website. The following subcategories were generally used to determine sector: 1. Academic and Government Research Includes universities and government laboratories. 2. Electronics Includes work in computer hardware, display, robotics, etc. 3. Energy and Environmental Applications Includes work in automotives, fuel cells, batteries, MEMS, etc. 4. Imaging and Microscopy Includes work in optics, etc. 5. Materials Includes work in buckytubes, nanocoatings, nanoparticles, nanocomposites, nanopowders, nanocrystals, nanotubes, thin films, chemistry, fabrics, etc. 6. Medicine and Health Includes work in nanobiotechnology, drugs, medical devices, skin treatments, etc. 7. Organization Includes non-profits, think tanks, professional organizations, etc. 8. Tools and Instruments Includes work in computer software, nanolithography, etc. 19

B. Creating the Maps Static maps have been created using Mapland software. This software program provides the ability to create maps of the entire United States, which indicate the number of companies, universities, government laboratories, and organizations located in each state by the 3-digit zip code (the first three digits of the 5-digit zip code). Names of each 3-digit zip code Nano Metro have been determined using the United States Postal Service 3-Digit Zip Code Prefix Matrix (http://pe.usps.gov/text/dmm300/l002.htm). II.
