Applied NanoWorks  
Applied NanoWorks - making big changes with small products At ANW we are working to change new product material development by providing the same level of control now found in organic chemistry to inorganic materials. By releasing the power of inorganics, ANW's mission is to change the way inorganics transform the world.
Eric Burnett
Applied Nanoworks President & CEOApplied NanoWorks (ANW) was founded in 2003 with a mission to develop high value nano-oxides and nano-phosphors that could be made using novel and scalable manufacturing technologies licensed from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, NY.

While investigating promising process improvements in the core nano-oxide processes, ANW's R&D team discovered the technology for our Molecule Control Platform a far more powerful and highly flexible chemical manufacturing platform than our original nano-oxide materials and processes. We found 'nano' to be too big for real solutions, and moved our focus to the molecular level to produce game-changing flexible inorganics.

ANW has successfully raised nearly $5 million from venture capitalists and government research agencies for development of its materials platforms. New York State Energy Research Development Authority (NSYERDA) has been a strong supporter of ANW's on-going nano-phosphor work as well as its MCP production scale up efforts.

ANW believes that operational philosophies are every bit as important as its core technology. A strong commitment to our customers and our employees is at the core of what makes ANW a unique and a valued partner. Even as a technology start-up, ANW has emphasized business functions such as EH&S, Human Resources and preparation for ISO certification right from the start.
