NanoInk, Inc. is an emerging growth nanotechnology company headquartered in Skokie, Illinois, with a MEMS fabrication facility in Campbell, California.

A spin-off of Northwestern University and founded by Northwestern professor Chad Mirkin, NanoInk specializes in nanometer-scale manufacturing and applications development for the life science and semiconductor industries. Dip Pen Nanolithography (DPN) is a patented and proprietary nanofabrication technology[clarification needed] marketed as an anti-counterfeiting aid for pharmaceutical products.

Other key applications include nanoscale additive repair, and nanoscale rapid prototyping. Located in the Illinois Science + Technology Park, north of Chicago, NanoInk currently has over 100 patents and applications filed worldwide and has licensing agreements with Northwestern University, Stanford University, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and the Georgia Institute of Technology.

Within seven months of its formation, the firm released its first product, the DPN-System-1, which turns any atomic force microscope into a DPN machine.[1]
