Australian Nano Business Forum

Operational since mid-2006, the ANBF which is Australia’s peak national body, with members in all states, represents and promotes Australian industries and companies involved in nanotechnology. The ANBF provides a collective voice for member organisations engaged in this emerging technology, as well as facilitating links between other key stakeholders such as government, funding, regulatory and research entities.
The ANBF has a truly national perspective, and is not dominated by any state, industry or government. It is governed by a Board of Directors, with the Constitution allowing for each state to be represented. A small secretariat supports ANBF’s national activities.
The role of the ANBF is evolving and diverse. It includes representing and promoting Australian nanotechnology, both domestically and internationally; providing a mechanism for industry development incorporating nanotechnology companies and their key stakeholders; presenting a collective industry view to Commonwealth and State governments, regulatory, funding and other decision-makers; formulating linkages between industry and research communities to facilitate industry uptake of nanotechnology; and building confidence in nanotechnology in the investor community.
