Many of the intermediate materials for nano are toxic, so the question is how you manage that process.

I think there are still quite a number of people who want to study in the United States. But I believe it is not as popular as it used to be because there are now a lot more choices, like European countries.

We'll take care of the whole process, including the listing, the photograph and the fulfillment.

We would like to maintain whatever market share we have right now. We are expanding our dealership and production to meet the target.

The power of what we have achieved could only have come about because we have worked together.

Both states are small regions, yet we have an unusual economic throw-weight because of our industrial economic demographics. The real work has been how do we take the good cards we are dealt and actually use them to make some fairly sweeping changes.

We've had people tell us that they have roomfuls of stuff that they've set aside for selling on eBay, but the reality is it never gets done. And every day that it sits there, it's losing value.

A few years ago, the bucket hat and visors were becoming extremely popular but we've definitely seen dramatic drop in both styles, particularly the bucket hat. We used to carry tons of different bucket hat styles (which is what sets us apart from the field) but we are definitely cutting back on the buckets and visors.

No. We are not. We have no tie-up with Volkswagen in Malaysia. What we manufacture here is basically for us.

That's quite a luxury compared to the days when I was doing research with two people squeezed into one fume hood.

The big progress that's been made in the last year or two has been picking our spots to play in the broad nano area.

If you really study the track record of technology transfer and commercialization, as much value, or more, in a region is accrued from the companies and projects you attract to the area versus the actual direct transfer of things that originate there.
