�Small Times Media has been executing custom market research projects for companies and key government agencies for the past three years,� said Small Times Media CEO Patti Glaza. �The demand for our analytical services was so strong that we decided to launch a separate division to answer those needs.�
Heading the new division is recently hired Marlene Bourne, an internationally acclaimed MEMS and emerging technology market analyst.

EmTech Research will draw upon the depth of knowledge at Small Times Media, as well as Small Times Media�s database, which is the most comprehensive and accurate list of companies and organizations in micro and nanotechnology.
�Economic development groups need to examine their region�s micro and nanotechnology activity closely because the decisions they make now will allow them to reap economic rewards over the next five to 10 years,� said Glaza.
