Neptune Nanotechnologies Inc. (Accelerator)

Company Description: Neptune Nanotechnologies Inc. is an early-stage tech Startup active in the bio-nano material space. Specifically, we are commercializing a technology that can convert organic fishing waste into ultra-high value nanocrystals. These nanocrystals are stronger than steel, lighter than plastic, entirely bio-based, non-toxic, bio-compatible and biodegradable. They function as physical additives where a small quantity of nanocrystals added can drastically increase the strength, stiffness, crack resistance and barrier properties of the underling material. And they have a wide range of applications including but not limited to aerospace and automotive composites, high barrier films and packaging, structural adhesives, 3D printed materials, biomedical devices and even energy storage devices. We own proprietary IP, have a strong team lead by a Forbes 30 under 30 founder, a former Dow Chemical Scientists and a former public company CFO. We closely collaborate with leading research institutions such as the University of Toronto and York university.
