VSParticle’s revolutionary technology enables materials to be broken down to the size of nanoparticles and produced at the push of a button, allowing university researchers and commercial R&D teams to experiment to create new materials that will power next-generation products. It can take up to 10 years to discover new materials in a lab and a further five to bring them to mass production, but VSParticle’s technology is supporting teams to reduce the overall time of material discovery down to only one year.
VSP empowers R&D teams in labs today and its future-proof technology positions it at the forefront of the self-driving lab revolution. An increasing number of VSP customers are pioneering autonomous labs that integrate robotics, AI, and high-throughput material synthesis to accelerate ground-breaking discoveries crucial for addressing urgent global challenges like sustainable energy. VSP’s advanced technology ensures top-tier material synthesis, paving the way for future innovations in nanotechnology and novel materials for the energy sector.
The new funding, which included participation from previous investor Hermann Hauser Investment, brings the total raised by VSParticle to €24.5 million. The new investment will be used to further the development of VSP’s technology so its next-generation printers have up to 100 times higher output and will also support the company in expanding to Japan and doubling down in the US and Europe.
