  1. The governmental Action Plan for Nanotechnology in Germany Minapim 2008, Manaus Dr. Gerd Bachmann VDI Technologiezentrum GmbH Funding Agency, commissioned by the BMBF Düsseldorf, Germany

  2. Presentation is part of the Internationalization Strategy Four main pillars 3. Strengthening the cooperation with developing countries in education, research and development 1. Systematically increasing the cooperation with the best researchers worldwide 4. Taking international responsibility to master global challenges 2. Opening up international innovation potentials Accompanying measures Presence abroad and international monitoring of R&D Promoting Germany as location for higher education, research and innovation In accordance with the European strategy Country and regional strategies Strategic monitoring and revision

  3. General Approach: The German High-Tech-Strategy Germany's High-Tech-Strategy: an answer to future challenges • Implement a coordinated and focused innovation policy • Use Germany's potential for future lead markets • Global competition is an opportunity • Make Germany a talent lab • Knowledge and responsibility go hand in hand

  4. The German High-Tech Strategy The specific innovation strategies (3 segments;17 areas) Innovation for healthy and safe living Innovation for a communicative and mobile life Innovation through generic technologies Biotechnology Microsystems technology Optical technologies New materials Production technologies Nanotechnologies Information/communication technologies Transportation technologies Aircraft technologies Space technologies Maritime technologies Safety / security research Health research Medical technology Plants Energy technologies Environment technologies

  5. Nano-Initiative – Action Plan 2010 • Part of the High-Tech-Strategy • Started November 2006 • Joint initiative of 8 ministries • Details at www.bmbf.de/en/nanotechnologie

  6. Germany´s Strengths and Challenges w.r.t Nanotechnology

  7. Nano-Initiative – Action Plan 2010 • Basic Elements: • Rapid transfer of nanotechnological research results into innovations;Utilization of Nanotechnology for the most important industrial sectors • Elimination of innovation barriers and improvement of frameworkconditions by a joint approach of all involved ministries • Evaluation of effects of nanomaterials on health and environment • Communication with the public about chances and risks of Nanotechnology • Identifying future research needs

  8. Nano Initiative AP 2010: Opening up future markets

  9. Opening up future markets Leading Edge Innovations / Innovation Alliances • are orientated towards added-value chains with high economic potential • help to create new jobs and to strengthen the innovative potential of industry (esp. SME) • support strong markets / address new markets • extraordinary investments in R&D by the industry • take into account social demands

  10. Goals Development of a powerful, high-capacity lithium ion- battery for mobile and stationary applications Mobile field: Batteries for electric cars Stationary field: Storage of renewably generated energy Challenges new generation of battery, no up-scaling new concepts for materials, construction and systemintegration necessary Strategy multidisciplinary cluster projects (guided by industry and research institutions); support of young excellent scientists co-ordination with other complementing activities Example: Innovation Alliance Lithium-Ion Battery(just starting)

  11. National infrastructures - Competence centers • Active since 1998 • Formation of a network infrastructure • Contact partner of the BMBF • Public relation • Education and qualification • Cooperation in innovation processes • Support for start-ups and spin-offs Future aim • Intensifying the cooperation between networks Nanotechnology in Hamburg Nanostructures in Optoelectronics Ultraprecise surface treatment Nanoanalytics Ultrathin functional layers Nanobiotechnology Nanomaterials Chemical Nanotechnology  AGeNT-D Excellence network Nanobiotechnology
