Russian Nanotechnology CorporationRussian Nanotechnology Corporation (Russian: Роснанотех, Rosnanotekh) is a Russian non-profit state owned corporation, which has been created according to the law "On the Russian Nanotechnology Corporation" proposed by several members of the United Russia party on June 52007, and passed its first reading in the State Duma on June 14[1] and final reading on July 4. The upper house, the Federation Council, approved it on July 6. The corporation is expected to ensure interaction between government, business, and scientists in the implementation of state policy in nanotechnology and the nano-industry.
