| Nanotechnology is expected to have a major impact on global economies this century and is an important sector for Jamaica in achieving the agenda of becoming a competitive and dynamic knowledge-driven economy by 2030. Key to this will be the active participation of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), which are seen to be a major source of innovation and entrepreneurship, and could help Jamaica to better capitalise on and imrpove itself to a world-class research level. However SMEs often have difficulty in accessing funds and support to achieve their full potential. |
