Recent advances and current status of ATRP will be presented. This will include new catalytic/initiating systems allowing to decrease concentration of Cu level to ppm amounts and new reaction processes. Examples of polymers with controlled topology, composition and functionality will be covered. Current and forthcoming commercial applications will be discussed.
