Firma Innovation Network for Advanced Materials e. V. — Mon, 08 May 2023 13:29:00 +0000

INAM – The Innovation Network for Advanced Materials is proud to announce the selection of eleven remarkable startups for the 2023 AdMaCom accelerator program. These startups, specialising in various advanced materials and technologies, have been carefully chosen from over 100 applications to join this year’s prestigious cohort.

INAM’s Managing Director, Oliver Hasse, shared his excitement about this year’s cohort: "After a record number of applications from around the world to this year’s AdMaCom with a very high level of quality, we are very excited to welcome the finalist startups to the programme and later on to Berlin for the final week. The selection committee had a really difficult task and discussions during the meeting were intense. We are of course happy to share some feedback with those that did not make it in due course."

The Startup Finalists:

Algreen (London, United Kingdom) provides sustainable and biodegradable solutions for the production of polyurethanes, a widely used plastic, to reduce carbon emissions and waste.

Smart Materials (Qormi, Malta) is revolutionising the polyurethane foam market with one-shot production of auxetic foam, outperforming competitors at a lower cost.

Vitropep (Paris, France) creates stable, painless, wasteless injections using a new peptide formulation that allows them to mould peptides into microneedles for intradermal delivery.

Solaga (Berlin, Germany) develops algae biofilms for sustainable energy, water treatment, and air purification. They have a range of products for residential and commercial customers.

N&E Innovations (Singapore) developed Vikang99, a plant-based, sustainable, and non-toxic antimicrobial derived from food waste. Their products include Vi-Mask and C2Plus disinfectants with up to six months‘ efficacy against coronaviruses.

Acoerela (Singapore) drives chemical innovation in optical probes for research and clinical diagnostics. They focus on life science applications, specifically in exosome detection, with a new, water-soluble organic dye that solves current pain points in lipid nanoparticle research.

3D Architech (Cambridge, USA) is revolutionising metal manufacturing with affordable, high-resolution, and sustainable gel-based 3D printing technology. They solve fundamental metal manufacturing limitations by 3D printing gels first and then transforming them into metals.

Berlin Catalysts (Berlin, Germany) produces customizable supported catalysts for a more sustainable future, offering unprecedented control over materials.

Applied Bioplastics (Austin, USA) is decarbonizing durable plastics using plant fibres, reducing carbon footprint without sacrificing functionality or cost.Biowerkz (Karlsruhe, Germany) provides sustainable, biobased, and circular materials as an alternative to wood and engineered wood products for construction and furniture industries. Their patent-pending material, NEWood, is developed using only organic waste and mushroom mycelium as a natural binder.

Phantafield (California, USA) is a trailblazing startup that has developed a patented MOCVD system for growing 2D semiconductors (WS2, WSe2) under CMOS backend temperatures (

Innovations in Biosynthesis Challenge with CDT (a SC Group company) Winner: Enzyan Biocatalysis

Firma Innovation Network for Advanced Materials e. V. — Tue, 21 Feb 2023 10:59:00 +0000

INAM – the Innovation Network for Advanced Materials, on behalf of Cambridge Display Technology (CDT), a Sumitomo Chemical Group Company, is proud to announce Enzyan Biocatalysis as the winner of the Innovations in Biocatalysis Challenge.

About Enzyan Biocatalysis
Enzyan Biocatalysis is a spinoff from the University of Graz in Austria which aims to provide its industrial partners the required tools for the implementation of green and economic biomanufacturing processes. They provide support in the identification, development, and optimization of more efficient and sustainable synthetic routes. Using cutting-edge computational and wet-lab tools, Enzyan tests the production of biocatalysts and characterises enzymes in view of their biocatalytic properties. This allows them to design biocatalytic routes and enzymatic cascades as well as identify optimal process parameters.

More about this challenge

This Open Innovation Challenge was based on one of the Sumitomo Chemical (SC) Group’s key priority; Green Transformation (GX). As part of this, biological alternatives to traditional high temperature and high-cost catalytic production methods were sought which produce valuable outputs from sustainable feedstocks in an efficient manner.
