Empowering Innovation: Advanced Materials Lab 2023 Cohort Success

The Advanced Materials Lab (AdMaLab) program is a 6-month program crafted by industry experts to empower early-stage deep tech startups. It aims to facilitate growth and provide invaluable resources to accelerate the entry of their groundbreaking technologies into the global market.

The 2023 Cohort of the Advanced Materials Lab commenced in August 2023 and concluded with a remarkable Demo Day on February 28, 2024. This event offered startups a unique platform to showcase their innovations to potential investors and industry peers. After thorough deliberation, the jury, comprising a panel of experts, announced NextGo Epi as the winner.

Introducing the winner

NextGO Epi delivers customised gallium oxide (β-Ga2O3) epiwafers grown by metalorganic chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD). Our product aims to save energy loss from current electricity systems, and pave the way for the new generation of power electronics.
