Gotham Foundry & NYCEDC are partnering with Communitas America to launch a regenerative materials pitch day competition for the next EDC Impact Award to support innovators developing the Materials of the Future. It is designed to help earlystage innovators sharpen their value proposition & polish their ability to communicate their scientific innovations to various audiences.nThe inaugural cohort includes:nAmatecuses an industrial waste product to manufacture & install high-performance walls, making storm- & fire-resistant homes possible at no extra cost.nAnew Materialis building a biodegradable, microplastic-free coating platform from plant-based materials to replace petrochemical films across cosmetics, textiles, & packaging.nBioWraptoris a peptide-based technology company that stabilizes perishable biomolecules at room temperature, eliminating the need for cold-chain storage & enabling broader access to medicines, diagnostics, & research tools.nCellsense transforms algae & cellulose into beads & bead fabrics that eliminate microplastics across the fashion, jewelry, & beauty industries.nChromaNovadevelops high-precision optical sensing for next-generation robotic touch.nCocoaFibertransforms chocolate industry agricultural waste into high performance biomaterials.nECO-SKINis growing bandagesplastic-free, biodegradable, & designed for better healing.nEquiPadis making greener, safer menstrual care extremely accessible.nOuros Materialsis turning CO2 into high performance fire-resistant composite materials to decarbonize the built environment.nTastee Tapeis replacing plastics with a biodegradable, food-safe, & cost-effective flexible packaging for food CPG businesses to reduce the presence of forever chemicals (PFAS).nn*By registering for this event, you agree to comply with ASRC's Code of Conduct & all the lawful instructions, policies, & directions of the Venue.
