Strategic Partnerships Innovalight is building a platform of low-cost, high-performance silicon-based solar cells using silicon nanotechnology and ink-jet printing, offering module manufacturers a path to lower-cost cells with higher throughput. Engage large solar module manufacturers to co-develop or license the technology for integration into next-gen modules, accelerating scale and market adoption. The company’s venture backing and DOE funding help de-risk partnerships and support early-stage pilots.

Credibility Funding World Economic Forum Technology Pioneer recognitions coupled with a strong group of backers and DOE backing provide a credible backdrop for customer conversations and co-investment in pilots. Leverage this credibility to open discussions with potential customers and partners about joint development and grant-funded initiatives.

Scale Licensing With a small team and no disclosed large-scale manufacturing, licensing IP or forming contract-manufacturing partnerships can accelerate scale without building new fabs. Explore licensing deals, co-development arrangements, or turnkey production partnerships with established solar manufacturers or foundries.

Government Pilots DOE funding signals alignment with public R&D programs; target DOE labs, national labs, and government clean energy initiatives for pilots and funded collaborations that validate performance and economics in real-world production environments.

Differentiation ROI The silicon nanotechnology and ink-jet approach positions Innovalight to claim cost-per-watt advantages and higher throughput relative to conventional cells. Craft value props around total cost of ownership, deployment speed, and compatibility with existing silicon-based manufacturing to win cost-conscious buyers.
