Global Crown Capital, LLC ("GCC"), a full-service boutique investment firm today announced that their second annual Nanotechnology Investment Conference for Institutional Investors will be held on November 7-8, 2007 at the Olympic Club's Historic Lakeside Clubhouse in San Francisco, California. At this invitation-only conference, institutional investors will gain valuable insight into how exposure to Nanotechnology could improve the performance of their portfolios in the Electronics, Energy, Materials, Chemicals, Consumer and Cleantech sectors.

Conference speakers will include CEOs and CFOs of leading public companies involved in the development and use of Nanotechnology, senior executives of several later stage private Nanotech companies, select industry thought leaders and Global Crown Capital's All-Star Analyst team. A sample of confirmed companies include: Veeco Instruments, Harris & Harris Group, FEI Company, Nanophase Technologies, NVE Corp., Arrowhead Research, Applied Materials, First Solar, Altair Nanotechnologies, Nanosys, and PowerMetals.

Rani Jarkas, Managing Director and Chief Investment Officer of Global Crown Capital said, "We are seeing a lot of interest by premier institutions in nanotechnology and we look forward to another successful conference this year."

Global Crown Capital is uniquely qualified to host this conference, as one of the leading investment firms in the U.S. focused on Nanotechnology. The firm has an unparalleled team of internal Nanotechnology experts, a pure-play Nanotechnology index -- currently used as a benchmark by professional investors -- and it publishes some of the only systematic research of public Nanotech equities worldwide.

According to Dr. John Roy, Senior Executive Director at GCC, "Nanotechnology is accelerating from development to products. With over 500 consumer products now using nano and nearly every major corporation working on it, we expect it to be the key to differentiation and the driver of growth for the next half century. From better solar cells, to better batteries, to better memory, to better displays, and even better golf clubs -- nanotech is leading the way."
