Since 2004, Nanoco has focused research efforts on cadmium-free quantum dot development, addressing environmental and health concerns while maintaining performance for applications in LCD displays, LED lighting, sensors, solar cells, and bio-imaging technologies. In October 2024, Dmitry Shashkov joined as Chief Executive Officer. Dr. Nigel Pickett, co-founder and CTO, announced retirement from the board in 2024 but remains with the company until February 2026.
