TechConnect Ventures
Sprint Challenge Brief:
Innovative Gas Barrier Technologies and Materials
Sprint Submissions Closed
Background
In support of a diverse consortium of companies, TechConnect Ventures is seeking proposals describing innovative materials or technologies which provide superior gas barrier performance versus current approaches. Barriers against gas permeation are necessary for a diverse range of industries and applications from construction and consumer goods packaging to medical devices. The inclusion of barrier technologies helps maintain the integrity, lifetime, or functionality of a product by preventing the transmission of targeted gases, such as oxygen, carbon dioxide, volatile organics, or water vapor, either into or out of a product.
The goal of this sprint is to facilitate contact and interactions between the Sprint sponsor and active researchers or technology developers in this space. Submissions and novel concepts from individuals and organizations in academia and research are of significant interest, but all viable technology providers are invited to respond for potential commercial opportunities with the client.
