We have invested tens of millions of dollars in infrastructure
projects, worked with our educational partners to become leaders in
nanotechnology research and development and have
built a plan through Vision 2020 to prepare for this new economy.
Alain Kaloyeros, architect of the successful effort to
build a
nanotechnology sector in the Albany region, exhausted my list of questions in two interviews this past week about the Buffalo
project, in which he plays a central role.
