This paper provides a systematic review on the subject of project management in nanotechnology to analyze existing body of literature and identify subject areas for further research.The literature review has been performed using two academic databases -Scopus and Web of Science.Despite the growing importance of high-tech industries, there are few studies dedicated to managerial issues of nanotechnology projects.Study was conducted by adopting three-step methodology combining both quantitative and qualitative research methods.As a result, eight knowledge areas were identified covering risk management issues, role of nanotechnology in economic development, link with other industries, safety issues, implementation of PM tools in the field of nanotechnology and others.Paper also provides an overview of top journals related to the topic, the most active scientists, institutions and relevant publications.Findings of detailed citation analysis shows that the most cited papers are far from PM practice.Nevertheless, study has both academic and practical relevance, discussing scientifically grounded PM knowledge that is applicable to the management of nanotechnology projects.
