SELF-HEALING MATERIALS START-UP SEEKING ADVISORS FOR BIKE AND AUTOMOTIVE MARKET ENTRY
ABOUT: This company is pioneering a new class of regenerative materials, with the world’s first platform to design, scale, and commercialize self-healing polymers - materials that don’t just resist damage but actively regenerate. With over 15 years of R&D in Diels-Alder chemistry, their platform uniquely combines self-healing, recyclability and industrial performance.
Their technology is already field-tested and entering industrial scale-up in tires — their first commercial vertical. The application for tires is a self-healing coating applied to the inside of the tire that autonomously repairs punctures and extends product lifespan.
LOOKING FOR: The company already has traction in the automotive space, and are now looking to complement this with hands-on advisors who can help them accelerate entry further into the automotive industry but even more importantly into the bike industry — ideally someone with access to OEMs, tire brands, or other key players in the cycling ecosystem.
Additionally, the company welcomes advisors with experience in:
- Scaling advanced materials or ingredient brands across industries
- Commercializing 3D printing or injection molding solutions
- B2B go-to-market execution for advance materials products
- Strategic partnerships and venture funding
Beyond tires, the same polymer platform holds promise for high-impact applications in 3D printing, injection molding and many more. We’re looking for a sparring partner who understands the challenges of scaling advanced materials platform technologies and can help them turn breakthrough science into durable business outcomes.
