Abstract
In the last decades, we have observed the growth of competitiveness and with this the need arises for the development of new technologies. Hence arises nanotechnology, which is a science that encompasses different areas, performing the manipulation of atoms and molecules. However, with the emergence of different technologies in nano, it is necessary to use the technological mapping to measure the production of these technologies that are being inserted in the market. This article seeks to map the technological innovations related to nanotechnology at the National Institute of Industrial Property (INPI). The methodology used was to the exploratory research through the documentary analysis through the search in the INPI database. As a result, the information obtained shows that there are a significant number of patents on nanotechnology innovations, but there is still a need for new technologies to expand in this area. It can be observed that there is little participation of Universities in the nano deposits, which shows the need of expansion of innovations in nano also in the Universities, and not only by companies. Therefore, innovations in nanotechnology can contribute to the growth of research on atom manipulation and extend the studies in its application in medicine.
