چکیده
Nanotechnology, despite its fantastic sounding name, is actually very practical for developing countries to make products better and cheaper. Technical innovations will increasingly shape developing economies and strengthen market robustness and build new profitable industry bases for these countries. Nanotechnology is expected to touch all industrial fields and new products. In this report we discuss briefly the socio-economic overview of nanotechnology and present some of the applications in this broad technological field that could easily be included into the developing world’s technological ambitions. It is time that nanotechnology is taken seriously before competition builds up across the world.
