Rusnano (Russian: Роснано) (formerly Russian Corporation of Nanotechnologies) is a joint-stock company created as a Private Equity and Venture Capital Vehicle by the government of Russia and aimed at commercializing developments in nanotechnology. Rusnano's task is to create by 2015 a nano-industry in the country that will make marketable products worth 900 billion rubles ($29 billion).〔(Q&A with Anatoly Chubais - WSJ )〕 In April 2012 they invested US $79m in Quantenna Communications, a manufacturer of semiconductors for wireless networks and devices. According to a press release issued by Rusnano, this investment will leverage synergies between Quantenna's portfolio and a number of nanotechnology initiatives that are under way at RUSNANO.〔(Quantenna Communications Raises $79 Million Led by RUSNANO )〕 One hundred percent of the shares in RUSNANO have become the property of the government.〔(State Corporation RUSNANO Reorganized as Open Joint-Stock Company )〕 ==History== A law (''On the Russian Nanotechnology Corporation'') which resulted in the creation of "Russian Corporation of Nanotechnologies" was proposed by several members of the United Russia party on June 2007. The proposal passed its first reading in the State Duma on June 14〔(Full text in Russian )〕 and final reading on July 4. The upper house, the Federation Council, approved it on July 6.〔(Wired )〕 Initially organised as a state corporation, the company was re-registered on March 11, 2011 as open joint-stock company RUSNANO. In 2009 "Russian Corporation of Nanotechnologies" established an international award in the “nano” field – RUSNANOPRIZE.〔http://rusnanoprize.ru/en/〕 The Prize is awarded annually in one of the following fields: Optics and Electronics; Nanomaterials and Surface Modification; Medicine, Pharmacology and Biotechnologies; Energy Efficiency and Green Technologies. Prize fund is 3 million rubles(over USD $90 000). On September 7, 2007 Vladimir Putin appointed Leonid Melamed, a former deputy CEO RAO UES, Director General of Rusnano. On 22 September 2008 President of Russia Dmitry Medvedev appointed Anatoly Chubais as the Director General of Rusnano. The same decree removed former Director General Leonid Melamed from his position, though Melamed, is now President, Effortel and the Executive Board of the Supervisory Council, the highest management body of the corporation.〔(Чубайс возглавил "Роснанотех" ) Grani.ru 〕 In 2015 Melamed was temporarily placed on house arrest in an investigation on "waste of public money". Soon after the arrest at least five high rank Rosnano managers left Russia. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rusnano」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
