Applied Graphene said that partners will pay a one-off fee for a standard package that includes R&D, quality control testing, on-going stability trials and a starter kit for graphene dispersion. Customised product specifications will be charged separate fees based on the project’s requirements.
Adrian Potts, the CEO of Applied Graphene Materials, said: “The exciting product launches of our customers in recent days and months have been the result of extensive testing and collaboration with AGM’s outstanding technicians, who have developed unique proprietary IP in graphene dispersion and application. I am confident that the formal launch of our Innovation Accelerator service will support growing momentum of product development both with AGM’s existing and new customers across the world, and I would like to pay tribute to the great skill and hard work of our talented team.”
