The Multifunctional textiles conference will focus on issues related to the marketing of upgraded textiles. Representatives from leading textile companies and scientific institutes will present innovations in the area of textile nanotechnology for different applications in building construction, sports, or for the protection of humans and objects.

The attendees of the conference on Nano-based electronic and sensor systems will learn about novel technology platforms and nanotechnological processes. These smarter systems from the nanoworld allow faster response times and special surface adaptations for biological processes.

Thus, for example, they enable the capacity of chips to be multiplied for a given or even smaller surface area. Nanomaterials are characterized by their large surface areas. The conference on Systems with functionalized surfaces and structures shows how these surfaces can be functionalized and adapted to specific needs.

NanoRegulation: Voluntary measures for protecting health and the environment - Nanotechnology opens up enormous innovation opportunities, but also involves potential health, safety, and environmental risks. As nanomaterials increasingly pour into the marketplace, the calls for improved risk governance and reasonable regulations are becoming louder.

In this connection, the concept of voluntary measures such as risk management systems, codes of conduct, or disclosure agreements have become widely noted.The 4th NanoRegulation Conference to be held on September 16 and 17 will provide a well-founded overview over different aspects and experiences with voluntary measures. In addition, the participants will be involved in an international dialog with authorities.
