Summary:	After the UK Government announced its intention to develop a new strategy for nanotechnology in June 2009, it launched a website ("Nanotechnologies: Influence and Inform the UK Strategy") inviting stakeholders from academia, industry, government, and any other interested organizations to respond to questions regarding nanotechnology. Themes addressed in the questionnaire were anticipating opportunities and concerns, managing risks and uncertainties, innovation and business climate, public and stakeholder dialogue, and measurement and standards. Forty-one respondents submitted answers by October 31, 2009, and this document contains their responses. Widely held respondents' themes include concern over the level of government funding into research of environmental, health, and safety concerns, as well as the need for better coordination of research activities and of commercialization.
