Why nanotechnology breakthroughs often stagnate before reaching the market

New research suggests that the most formidable barrier to commercializing nanotechnology is not the science itself, but rather the way organizations manage the innovation process. While nanotechnology is heralded as one of the most transformative frontiers of the 21st century, with the potential to revolutionize everything from cancer treatments and clean energy to next-generation electronics, a significant gap remains between laboratory discovery and commercial reality.
