The purpose of this article is to explore the nanotechnological capacities in the research groups of the Institutions of Higher Education (IHE) of Antioquia. The research methodology followed is the collective case study, and the analysis method used was the content analysis with the help in the initial stage of Atlas.ti. As a result of the research, an embryonic regional nanotechnological capacity is evident, and are advancing at an early stage of assimilation, where there is still no application of knowledge; the research is aimed at understanding the phenomena of matter at the nano level, not according to social or business needs, that is, an exploratory capacity, the researchers have doctoral training and the specialized teams are of low-level.The article is divided into five sections, including this introduction. The second section defines and classifies nanotechnological capabilities. The third section describes the methodological design, the fourth section presents the results, and at the end, the discussion and conclusions.
