TechConnect — Four Conferences in One

06/01/08 - 06/05/08
Hynes Convention Center, Boston

Starting June 1, the Hynes Convention Center will be buzzing with four (or is it three? we can’t really figure it out) simultaneous and apparently interrelated conferences, sponsored in part by the Cambridge, MA-based Nano Science and Technology Institute:

TechConnect Summit 2008: “Focused on bringing together the world’s top technology transfer offices, companies, and investment firms to locate the most promising technologies and early stage companies from across the globe.”

Clean Technology 2008: “A multi-disciplinary and multi-sector conference on global sustainability addressing advancements in traditional technologies, emerging technologies and clean business practices….[intended to] bring together the entire Clean Technology ecosystem with the goal of accelerating the flow of technologies from the research phase to the viable market phase.”

NSTI Nanotech 2008: “The largest and most comprehensive technical and business event in nanotechnology world-wide with over 30 technical and business symposia.”

NSTI Bio Nano 2008: “The largest and most comprehensive technical and business event in nanotechnology world-wide with over 30 technical and business symposia.” (Yeah, we know it sounds the same.)
