Chief Minister Siddaramaiah Said, I am extremely happy to be present here today among thought leaders, leading scientists, academicians, technologists and captains of industries from India and abroad in this prestigious nanotechnology event.
At the outset, I congratulate to Prof. Arindam Ghosh, who receives the prestigious Prof. C.N.R. Rao Bengaluru India Nano Science Award in this august gathering.
It is always stimulating and an enjoyable experience for me to be a part of any science and technology related activity in the State.
Karnataka has always been well known not only for its rich cultural heritage, but also for its strong base for educational and research activities. Our state is always in the forefront with respect to technology- based innovations is concerned.
I am quite confident that, with the support of premier research institutions like IISc, JNCASR, NCBS, CeNS etc, Bengaluru will be transformed into Nano Tech Hub of India and will keep up its eminent position in this emerging technology in the years to come.
I call upon our scientists and Engineers to come-up with innovative nanotechnology-based solutions for food security, energy security, water purification, infrastructure, medicine, health care and waste management as well as to combat environmental hazards, which are expected to increase many folds in the near future due to urbanization, population growth and change in life style.
I believe that, international research collaboration is fundamental for harnessing the potential of this emerging technology through exchange of information, technology transfer, sharing of costs, risks, access to know-how as well as to develop talent pool towards common good of humanity.
I consider that, international event like this will provide enough opportunity for networking, interactions for knowledge sharing, exchange of technology, skill development and business collaboration.
I take this opportunity to invite our young entrepreneurs to seize the opportunity to establish their new ventures in the State based on the collaboration and co-operations with the visionary leaders and experts.
Our government will provide all possible support for emerging entrepreneurs to make Karnataka as a favourable ecosystem for the growth of this sunrise industry.
I would like to thank Bharat Ratna Prof. C.N.R. Rao, for his constant guidance in organizing this event right from its inception in 2007.
I wish you all a very enjoyable time in this beautiful city of Bengaluru. I wish the 13th grand celebration of Bengaluru India Nano a great success.
