Molecular nanotechnology involves manipulating structures with atomic precision.
By working at a molecular level in a directed fashion, tremendous advantages are possible over any manufacturing methods currently available. A taste of these advantages is provided in the book Unbounding the Future - The Nanotechnology Revolution, written by Eric Drexler and Chris Peterson with Gayle Pergamit. MMEI was founded by three people with strong scientific and financial backgrounds. In addition, MMEI uses several advisors with outstanding backgrounds in a variety of areas, both technical and non-technical. The primary goal of MMEI is to advance the state of the art of molecular nanotechnology.
