UbiQD, Inc. is an advanced materials company powering product innovations in agriculture, clean energy, and security. Founded in 2014 by Dr. Hunter McDaniel to commercialize breakthroughs in quantum dot nanotechnology, UbiQD makes use of technology licensed from LANL, MIT, WWU, and UW and is based in Los Alamos, NM. What differentiates UbiQD from its competitors in the quantum dot industry (total 2015 industry sales of ~$300 million with 90% annual growth) is its focus on a specific class of low-hazard semiconductor QDs composed of CuInSeS and ZnSeS, which are synthesized by an extremely low-cost manufacturing process. Typically, quantum dots are composed of either cadmium selenide or indium phosphide, both of which are highly toxic and extremely expensive, which limits their application to displays. UbiQD’s goal is to enter new markets enabled by the dramatically lower costs and negligible toxicity of their materials. In a recent ranking by New Materials News, UbiQD was selected as the #7 QD company with the judges stating: “Despite its age, UbiQD has quickly established itself as one of the most interesting and innovative companies in the sector. The low price point of its low-toxicity QDs means that it is able to enter industries that have so far been off-limits.” The dry Los Alamos climate provides the perfect conditions for reproducible nanomaterial production while the close proximity to Los Alamos and Sandia National Laboratory allows for beneficial collaborations with leading scientists in the area
Our goal is to enable the analysis of anything, anywhere, by anyone. We have developed the world’s first and only nanopore DNA and RNA sequencing platform. It’s a new generation of sequencing technology — the only one to offer: scalability to portable or ultra-high throughput formats, real-time data delivery, and the ability to elucidate rich biological data. We are aiming to disrupt the way that biological analyses are currently performed, and open up new applications that have a profound, positive impact on society. Our devices offer real-time analysis, for rapid insights, in fully scalable formats — from pocket to population scale — and the technology is being used in more than 100 countries worldwide. Founded in 2005 as a spin-out from the University of Oxford, the company now employs more than 600 people from multiple disciplines including nanopore science, molecular biology and applications, informatics, engineering, electronics, manufacturing and commercialisation. The management team, led by CEO Dr Gordon Sanghera, has a track record of delivering disruptive technologies to the market.
We functionalize and create new molecular structures to enhance surface properties for a variety of materials. This includes making product surfaces repellent to water, oil, stains, microbials, and fingerprints. What makes our solutions unique is we tailor each product at the molecular level so that it matches the substrate, providing a high level of performance and extended durability
Vorbeck is a U.S.-based technology and manufacturing company that utilizes graphene as the foundation for engineering innovative products to break performance barriers. Our mission is to create wearable technology that will pave the way for a new generation of communications and sensing devices by combining traditional “hard” electronics with flexible, printed, “soft” electronics. At Vorbeck, we emphasize collaboration between in-house materials-science/chemistry teams, electrical & mechanical engineers, and soft goods designers, which allows us to rapidly develop simple, efficient, and high-performing products such as our patented graphene technology (Vor-x®), electronic components, and complete wearable-electronic systems.
