Innovative start-ups and scale-up companies participated in the Step Change 2023 event held in June 2023 at Nokia Arena, Tampere, Finland. Step Change 2023 was organized as a part of GPD Finland 2023. The event was introduced at Glass Performance Days (GPD) in 2017 as a way to develop and promote new innovations for the glass industry value chain.
MIMSI Materials is a deep-tech company based in Linköping, Sweden. It is developing a platform technology for creating a new class of high-performance transparent materials based on precision silver alloys.
The company’s first material Alumenate®, which was recently launched, extends the optical, electrical, durability and sustainability performance beyond the limits of state-of-the-art Low-E coatings. Alloying agents are strategically introduced to silver during the magnetron sputtering deposition process, providing unprecedented possibilities to control the thin film growth.
The optionality of this deep-tech innovation enables the company’s materials to be tailored to other applications requiring transparent conductive coatings, such as photovoltaics and AR/VR headsets.
