Global Markets For Nanotechnology To Reach $48.9 Billion By 2017

Nanotechnology continues to have a broad and fundamental impact on nearly all sectors of the global economy. Increased research and development (R&D) funding in both the private and public sectors are driving the development of commercial nanomaterials applications such as nanocatalyst thin films for catalytic converters, as well as new and emerging technologies such as nano-thin film solar cells, nanolithographic tools, and nanoscale electronic memory. BCC Research expects, increased R&D spending and rising demand for miniaturization in electronics, as well as public health and environmental concerns, to shape growth in this market for the foreseeable future.

BCC Research provides an in-depth analysis of the global markets for nanotechnology through its report Nanotechnology:A Realistic Market Assessment. According to the report, this market was estimated at $20.1 billion in 2011 and reached $20.7 billion in 2012. BCC Research projects the market to grow to $48.9 billion by 2017, and register a five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.7% from 2012 to 2017.
