MatNex
The next industrial
era will be designed,
not discovered.
Advanced industries are waiting on materials that do not exist.
MatNex designs them.
The critical materials design company.
Materials designed to specification.
Customers define the performance and cost targets they need, with stability and manufacturability built in from the start.
MatNex designs against those targets, replacing slow trial-and-error discovery with first-principles computation, machine learning, and rigorous materials engineering.
The result is validated, protectable material IP designed for industrial deployment.
Design. Validate. Protect. Deploy. Scale.
Now
Rare-earth-free magnetics.
MatNex is starting by replacing rare-earth dependence in magnets that power modern industry, from EVs and wind turbines to data storage, refrigeration, electronics, and industrial systems.
Today’s rare-earth supply chains are expensive, volatile, and strategically constrained.
Magnets are the first expression of the platform, not the limit. The same design engine can move into other constrained material systems where industrial requirements are outpacing known materials.
Beyond magnetics: fluids, semiconductors, batteries, and superconductors.
Designed for scale
We design the materials, ready for scale.
MatNex designs and owns the material IP. Manufacturing partners scale production. Customers deploy materials into industrial systems.
Each programme adds licensable material IP, with development fees, milestones, and royalties tied to deployment.
With every iteration we become stronger: data, validation workflows, IP, qualification knowledge, and commercial learning.
Scientific depth. Industrial execution.
MatNex brings together materials science, AI systems, first-principles modelling, lab validation, manufacturing readiness, IP strategy, programme delivery, and commercial execution.
Advisors
MatNex is advised by senior figures across industrial scale-up, magnetics, computational physics, advanced materials, commercial strategy, and manufacturing partnerships.
