Review of last meetings presentation

• Vision of NANOWorld and nanotechnology
• Dr. Laviano presented an example of
  nanotechnology from Raytheon and stressed its
  importance today
• Justin Biddles comments
• The transition to nanotechnology today is similar
  to the transition to the transistor 50 years ago
• Presented the conference attendance plan.

Nanotechnologys Impact

• The latest hot area in technology
• Has fostered many small start-up companies that
  are seeking funding to pursue their business
  plans.
• Now used in digital electronics, communications
  systems, et al.

NANOWorld Organization And Funding

• NANOWorld is being organized with the most
  efficient and cost effective means possible.
• The majority of the work is being done by a
  dedicated group of volunteers and the L.A.
  Council
• NANOWorld is being held at Loyola Marymount U.,
  rather than a larger, commercial venue,
  essentially for free.
• Advertising and promotional resources are limited
  so we are relying heavily on section and L.A.
  Council participation for attendance and
  sponsorship
• NANOWord will be profitable if attendance and
  sponsorship goals are met.

NANOWorld Attendance

• LAC and section representatives agreed to the
  attendance goals in the last meeting
• This was a pledge of support for attendance at
  the conference.

LA Council/Section Help Needed !
1. The Section will Purchase 3 Student Seats for
each University/College in the Section 2. Goal
to have Additional Seats registered based on the
number of IEEE members in the Section (roughly
1) 3. Assist in obtaining Table Tops and
Sponsors

NANOWorld Attendance

• Sections should coordinate with the student
  branches to organize student attendance.
• More than one student can use a seat but only one
  student can use a seat at any time.
• No student seat will go unused students will be
  found who can attend.
• Students attending from long distances will have
  free accommodations to spend the night.
• We request (encourage, beg, entreat) the sections
  to make every possible effort to reach their
  attendance goals
