Within this section, Nanobugle will test the 3 main key success factors for the development of new nanotechnology / nanoscience companies.

This week: Brasil

1) How was the company born?

NANOX® is headquartered in São Carlos, in the State of São Paulo. São Carlos is known for having large academic centers and for being the generator of knowledge and research with 4 universities amongst them the USP (Universidade de Sao Paulo) and UFSCar (Federal University of Sao Carlos), and 2 private universities. Famous in the exact sciences area, specifically in engineering. This is where one of the largest national nanotechnology company (connected to the branch of chemistry) was born, NANOX®.

NANOX® is a company that develops, produces and markets solutions for the nanotechnology industry.

2) Added value of the products/services

Nanox® has excellence in creating new and smart materials from nanotechnology. Its constant updating on new technology is made by a multidisciplinary scientific committee and its internal and external assistance provided by the network of partner institutions it supports.

The creation of intelligent materials that form the Nanox® products are made by manipulation of nanostructures and nanoparticles generated by the bottom-up approach, typical of chemistry. This approach builds the nanostructures from the bottom up, joining the molecules and ions.

3) Business Strategy

The classical model of innovation differs in NANOX® by the company’s unique ability to transform knowledge into useful solutions of nanotechnology to improve the quality of life and competitiveness of businesses that adopt them.

The company has a highly specialized team that offers a technical, scientific and marketing knowledge that helps businesses from the initial ideation to the commercialization of products.
