Background
CAN GmbH offers companies and research institutions contract research and development services in the area of nanotechnology and participates in national and international research programs. The focus of our activities is the utilization of new findings in chemical nanotechnology and nanoanalysis especially in the areas of consumables, specialty polymers and health care. Our main areas of expertise apart from the characterization of nanostructures are the production of many nanoparticulate and nanocomposite materials, encapsulation of active ingredients as well as development of nanoparticle-based biological and medical markers.
Through our close association with Hamburg’s universities and research institutions CAN GmbH has access to a large regional network of internationally outstanding scientists in the nanosciences, nanotechnology and life sciences as well as to an excellent array of instruments that is state-of-the art internationally. CAN GmbH is not interested merely in working with partners in Hamburg but rather gives priority to national and global economic and scientific aspects of current and future collaborations. Establishment of CAN GmbH as a Public Private Partnership created the organization needed to allow professional processing of R & D orders in close cooperation with universities. Started with a core team that now numbers 27, CAN GmbH will increase its staff to about 50 in the next few years.
CAN GmbH was founded in November 2005 as a joint venture by the Free and Hansestadt Hamburg, the University of Hamburg and well-known industrial enterprises which have combined to form a sponsor association. Among the members of the association, which is open to other companies, are Beiersdorf AG, Eppendorf AG, Olympus Winter & Ibe GmbH, Evotec Technologies GmbH and Nanogate AG as well as the Hamburg Chamber of Commerce and the Hamburger Sparkasse.
