Suggestions to MP State of S&T Future Index – Outbreak of Technological Foresight Programs around the world – Scenarios are a part of Foresight Programs; coupled with Delphi – Indicators for scenario quantification is a white sport – Modeling is at the initial stage Nanotechnology positive & negative impact on economy, environment and human being

7. Global & Regional R&D Expenditures Trends Phenomena of R&D expenditure trends in nano – budget R&D expenditures on nanogrow faster than budget appropriations on R&D – Although nano-market is at the initial stage as far as both basic and applied research are concentrated in public sector corporate R&D expenditures grow faster than the public ones and in North America they exceed the public investments in nanotechnology Dr. Nadezhda Gapnenko Dr. Nadezhda Gaponenko Moscow, Obrutcheva str. 30A, 117485 foresightr@mail.ru

8. Corporate R&D expenditures trends in different regions of the world Phenomena of R&D expenditure trends in nano – Corporate R&D expenditures grow fast in all regions of the world – Share of Asia and in particular other countries increases Center of Science Development Study, Russian Academy of Sciences Dr. Nadezhda Gapnenko Dr. Nadezhda Gaponenko Moscow, Obrutcheva str. 30A, 117485 foresightr@mail.ru

9. Key Characteristics & Tends in Russian Nanotech SIS Nanotech are in governmental priorities R&D on nano -scale are supported by varios national, regional and departmental programs Special role in civilian R&D financing play Ministry of Science and Education of the RF, Russian Academy of Sciences and in basic research - the Russian Foundation of Fundamental Studies. Building public-private partnership is in the focus to stimulate private investment in nanotech Center of Science Development Study, Russian Academy of Sciences Dr. Nadezhda Gapnenko Dr. Nadezhda Gaponenko Moscow, Obrutcheva str. 30A, 117485 foresightr@mail.ru

10. Key Characteristics & Tends in Russian Nanotech SIS R&D organizations are concentrated in the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS)(about 40%) Presidium of the RAS supports 7 interdisciplinary programs and pushes this way the interdisciplinary networks 10% of R&D organizations refer to private sector Center of Science Development Study, Russian Academy of Sciences Dr. Nadezhda Gapnenko Dr. Nadezhda Gaponenko Moscow, Obrutcheva str. 30A, 117485 foresightr@mail.ru

12. Specific Characteristics of SIS in Nanotechnology Emerging, fragmented at the initial stage With potential huge impact on NIS, structural shifts in economy, national competitiveness Marked by the institutional gaps, setting up of new firms and non-firm organization, emergence of networks, learning regime and consolidation of technologies Knowledge dynamic is an engine of SIS formation Center of Science Development Study, Russian Academy of Sciences Dr. Nadezhda Gapnenko Dr. Nadezhda Gaponenko Moscow, Obrutcheva str. 30A, 117485 foresightr@mail.ru

13. Specific Characteristics of SIS in Nanotechnology Knowledge base – interdisciplinary – cross-sectoral – not coherent science field characterized by enormous thematic breadth – most important sub- disciplines: applied physics, material science, physical chemistry, physics of condensed matter, chemistry, molecular biology – structural shifts from physics towards material science, polymer chemistry and chemistry – research on nano-scale are not purely fundamental nor fully applied (use-inspired research) Sectoral R&D system – setting up of interdisciplinary nanotechnology centers and centers of excellence around the world – expensive scientific infrastructure – both basic & applied science is concentrated in public sector – consequences of knowledge commercialization (both positive and negative) are not well explored Center of Science Development Study, Russian Academy of Sciences Dr. Nadezhda Gaponenko Moscow, Obrutcheva str. 30A, 117485 foresightr@mail.ru

14. Specific Characteristics of SIS in Nanotechnology Technology – emerging – disruptive – science-based technology – not coherent field Nano-market – emerging & fragmented – fast developing – In 2005, there were about 1480 companies with significant predominance of USA (about 825 companies), Germany (100) and UK (98) – Key players at the world market: SMEs and start- up, R&D organizations and some well known corporations – In U.S. – dominance of SMEs and start-up; in EU, Asia and Russia- R&D organizations Networks – interdisciplinary – overlapping Center of Science Development Study, Russian Academy of Sciences Dr. Nadezhda Gapnenko Dr. Nadezhda Gaponenko Moscow, Obrutcheva str. 30A, 117485 foresightr@mail.ru

17. Building Balanced and Adoptive SIS (regions specific measures) Asia Pacific – Nano- standardization initiatives (China) – Strong accents on commercialization (Taiwan) – Nanotech Roadmaps initiated by corporations (Japan, 2003) Russia – Setting-up governmental nano- corporation Latin America – Millennium centers supported by World Bank (Brazil) – Partnership with Lucent Technology (USA) for commercialization (Argentina) Center of Science Development Study, Russian Academy of Sciences Dr. Nadezhda Gapnenko Dr. Nadezhda Gaponenko Moscow, Obrutcheva str. 30A, 117485 foresightr@mail.ru

18. What drives nano-market and push corporations to invest in nano-scale research? Market expectations Growing competition at the electronics market Aggregation of energy problems ( high prices & call for environmentally friendly technology) Promise of some social issues solution (cancer, diabetes, early diagnostic, and the like) Lack of innovations out of nano, which potentially could yield significant revenue Center of Science Development Study, Russian Academy of Sciences Dr. Nadezhda Gapnenko Dr. Nadezhda Gaponenko Moscow, Obrutcheva str. 30A, 117485 foresightr@mail.ru

21. Conclusions SIS in Nanotech is looking for trajectories and is marked by diversity and lacking coherence of nanofield in the current embryonic stage Althougy nanotech are scince-driven technologies but to some degree they are pushed by existing industry boarder and are path dependent; at the same time they already drive interdisciplinary and crossectoral networks, will change knowledge foundation of NIS, mode of Industry-Academy relation and condition structural shifts in economy Private sector plays a vital role in emerging SIS; it provides huge contribution to knowledge production; high tech companies push interdisciplinary networks and contribute to the formation of new mode of Academy-Industry relations Public authorities measures are oriented on the development of information infrastructure, training courses, supporting networks and filling institutional gaps in SIS and this way they open the window for private sector Cultural issues play a significant role in trajectory of SIS development Center of Science Development Study, Russian Academy of Sciences Dr. Nadezhda Gapnenko Dr. Nadezhda Gaponenko Moscow, Obrutcheva str. 30A, 117485 foresightr@mail.ru Institute for Prospective Technological Studies
