on Nanotechnology for Water, and the new EC Code of Conduct. Registered members will be notified of dates
and times. If you would like to organize an online workshop, you are invited to contact the project partner

Launch of New Discussion and Networking Forum
Members registered on the ICPC NanoNet website (www.icpc-nanonet.org) now have a new tool for developing
collaborations. A forum has been launched to facilitate discussions between its members on various
N&N-related topics.

First Annual Workshop 2009 - DVDs now available DVDs of the first annual ICPCNanoNet project workshop are now available to registered members. The first
100 DVDs will be given out free. This first workshop, held in Prague, focused on the results of the project´s
first year, and profiled specific nano activities in the EU and a number of ICPCs.

Second Annual Workshop – Beijing 2010

workshop will showcase East Asian N&N from the perspective of building collaborations between this region
and the EU. A number of speakers from other ICPC regions will also be presenting news of novel developments
and current themes.

ICPCNanoNet Region Reports in Production
Work has commenced on the second set of annual reports from the eight ICPC regions. These reports will
provide an update of N&N activities during the past year. They will also provide an in depth focus on technical
themes and topics of interest for collaboration contributions of regional N&N news are particularly welcome
and you are invited to contact the project partner to submit these.

Publications Archive and Databases Expanding Rapidly
The ICPC NanoNet publications archive now holds almost 5,000 items. Scientists worldwide can be part of
this initiative by contributing their research to www.nanoarchive.org, raising their profile in the international
community. Meanwhile, the ICPC databases of N&N organisations and researchers are growing at an ever
increasing rate. N&N Scientists and researchers can register themselves on the project website; organisations
should contact their region’s partner for registration.
