Nanotechnology at the Forefront of Health, Fashion, Beauty, and Cosmetics – Insights from the NANOFUTURE EVENT
The NANOFUTURE EVENT, held at the Crowne Plaza in Athens, concluded with a clear message: Greece’s cutting-edge nanotechnology is revolutionizing health, fashion, beauty, and cosmetics.
Breakthroughs in Health: A Revolutionary Biosensor for Heart Attack Diagnosis
Dr. Varvara Karagkiozaki, Cardiologist, Nanomedicine Expert, and CEO of VK NANO, presented the latest advancements in prevention and nanomedical applications. One of the most groundbreaking innovations showcased was a biosensor for heart attack detection, developed by BL Nanobiomed after ten years of research. This company is part of the Nanotechnology ecosystem in Thessaloniki.
“With this biosensor, we can detect a myocardial infarction at home in less than two minutes—without the need for a doctor. It’s a pioneering achievement, and we hope to bring this product to market soon. We are currently in the clinical trial phase,” Dr. Karagkiozaki explained.
Merging Health and Beauty: The NANOTOUCHE® Innovation
The event also introduced VK NANO, a company within the Nanotechnology ecosystem, which created the NANOTOUCHE® brand—a line of high-value nanocosmetics.
The antioxidant formula behind NANOTOUCHE® is the result of years of research and development, incorporating Greek natural antioxidants such as curcumin and bilberry extract. The formula works at a cellular level, promoting skin regeneration.
Clinically Proven Skincare Results
Through state-of-the-art technology, NANOTOUCHE® has been clinically proven to:
- Reduce wrinkle depth
- Enhance skin elasticity
- Provide a lifting effect
Fashion Meets High Technology: Wearable Organic Electronics
The intersection of high-tech and beauty continued with a fashion showcase by renowned designer Vassilios Kostetsos. His latest creations integrated organic printed electronics, marking a shift toward sustainable, smart fashion.
These next-generation materials, developed by Organic Electronic Technologies, are among the world’s most eco-friendly technologies and pave the way for a greener future in fashion.
Nanotechnology Reshaping the Future
The NANOFUTURE EVENT demonstrated that nanotechnology is no longer limited to industrial applications—it is now transforming healthcare, cosmetics, and fashion, enhancing both quality of life and sustainability.
