Maximizing R&D efficiency in material informatics.
ExoMatter revolutionizes materials R&D by democratizing access to advanced materials informatics, allowing industry experts to identify and develop new materials optimized for properties, cost, and sustainability. Combining machine learning, quantum mechanical modeling, and proprietary data, ExoMatter’s solution is unparalleled in performance and scalability. Leading German enterprises like Bosch Siemens Hausgeräte, Infineon, and Airbus already rely on ExoMatter to streamline their materials development, saving resources by focusing on the most promising material candidates.
Why we invested
In today's rapidly evolving world, the need for materials innovation is greater than ever. As industries face tighter sustainability requirements, rising cost pressures and the need for accelerated development cycles, traditional R&D methods based on trial and error and legacy systems are falling short. This is where ExoMatter's AI-driven platform comes in, transforming the materials discovery process. By intelligently identifying and shortlisting optimal materials based on customer-specific requirements, ExoMatter's platform optimises for either sustainability, cost efficiency, properties, or all of the above. This approach not only accelerates R&D timelines, but also significantly reduces costs. The materials informatics market, which is expected to grow at a CAGR of >18%, represents a massive opportunity that has yet to be captured by any competitor. ExoMatter is well positioned and on track to become Europe's leading digital materials platform, with a first mover advantage covering an unrivalled range of materials. With strong regulatory tailwinds, including the EU's Ecodesign Directive and REACH regulations, the demand for innovative, sustainable materials will only increase.
