"Hello, this is Llyod Tran. I am the director of the California Institute of Nanotechnology in San Hose, California. There is a long list of Nanotech companies in the U.S. and around the world. I estimated, there are more than sixteen hundred and fifty Nanotech companies around the world. Among them about almost one thousand companies are in the U.S. Within the city of San Hose and the Bay are there are more than one hundred Nanotech companies called themselves in that space. There some leading companies in the Bay areas such as Intel, IBM, Toshiba, HP to name a few. And those are in semi conducting business.

Megatronics resembles a large medical devices using Nano material technologies. For the development of the medical devices. In the cosmetic products, companies such as Loreal was leading cosmetic companies. Because they've been using Nanotech companies of the, technologies for the past decade or two. Loreal controls more than one hundred and fifty patterns in their materials. Leading company is this space as well. There are many companies using Nano materials, making consumer goods. We use in the, for example they either they do in house. Or the contractor company such as directs in Houston, Texas. To manufacture the new component and then the composite for the application.

The companies in Southern California including Quantum Sphere, Combimatrix. And these materials, those are exciting young companies venture backed.
