    Objectives

    This market research was conducted with two key objectives in mind:

    1. Provide an overview of the nanotechnology and biotechnology industries in China, with focus on current state and key players.

    2. Based on the above research and analysis, to identify potential opportunities and barriers for Italian nanotechnology and biotechnology companies and to illustrate possible market entry approaches.

    Doing market research in China and our methodology

    · Generally speaking, conducting market research in China is different and significantly more challenging than it is in developed countries because of 1) the size and diversity of the country; 2) lack of fully reliable centralized/official information databases; 3) constant and extremely rapid change – the whole Chinese economic system is far from being in equilibrium.

    · Therefore solid market research work must be based on multiple resources

    and activities.

    · Our methodology leverages a combination of resources/activities such as:

    - All relevant background information (client data, existing available

    information, etc.).

    - Secondary research (in Chinese and English), which include several different resources, from proprietary databases to access to associations or magazines, etc.

    - Extensive primary research, which include access to external business network, interviews with experts and key insiders, possible visits to trade show or selected companies, etc.

    - Collective China knowledge/sector expertise/market research expertise with hundreds of research projects executed in and outside China.

Seizing the technological lead in nanotech is often viewed as an imperative for both 21st century defense and global competitiveness. Only revolutionary technologies are believed to allow a country to take advantage of its relative backwardness—in the sense of its lack of commitment to existing, incremental technologies—and leap ahead of existing technological leaders in developing and deploying a revolutionary new technology. New technologies, however, are only likely truly to revolutionize an economy and society if there is a broader national base that allows a new technology to spread and transform from its initial niche application, whether civilian or military, and if society is willing to adopt the technology in question. Globally, there is significant belief in the revolutionary potential of nanotechnology, not only to transform warfare, economy and society, but also the international geopolitical hierarchy. Between 2001 and 2014, over sixty countries followed the United States and established nanotechnology initiatives. These countries range from advanced industrial countries in Europe to Japan to the emerging markets of Russia, China, Brazil, and India to developing countries such as Nepal and Pakistan. In order to understand the risks associated with nanotechnology with respect to U.S. national security and leadership and means for managing them, the report begins with an examination of some of nanotech’s military applications, and interdisciplinary nature of nanotechnology. Definitional and data challenges make risk assessments of nanotech’s security, market, safety, health and environmental impacts difficult. This difficulty is reflected in the lack of multilateral and national efforts to govern nanotechnologies for security purposes. The report then sketches the global landscape of national nanotechnology efforts, with brief looks at Brazil, India and Russia, the European Union, Germany, and the United Kingdom and a portrait of China. In order to understand nanotechnology’s potential for technological surprise and disruption of the geopolitical position of the United States, it examines these empirical results against the background of the factors shaping government control of technological superiority. The report then concludes with an initial assessment of whether nanotechnology is revolutionary, and presents its key findings and policy recommendations. The findings presented here should be considered as preliminary, in that the report highlights central definitional and data challenges. Such conditions are ripe for overselling or underestimating nanotechnology’s potential and prevent the provision of more definitive answers.

    • A report has been published by the FSAI on nanotechnology and its potential future applications in food production and food packaging. The report describes the likely benefits for both consumers and manufacturers from nanotechnology but cautions that there is a lack of knowledge about the effects of nanotechnology in the food chain. This knowledge gap needs to be addressed and food safety legislation needs to be strengthened to ensure that the health of Irish consumers is protected.
