LinkedIn →What we bring and what we do
Each technology gets a Nodus business lead, a technical project engineer, and access to an analyst, embedded with the inventor's team from first screen to sale. We bring:
Market, buyers, business case and pricing: the work inventors rarely have time for.
Relationships with industrial companies in our three verticals, and the outreach to use them.
Readiness plans, specialist engineering firms, prototypes and field trials.
Funding held at Nodus level and released phase by phase, on evidence.
Advised by industry experts in each vertical
Senior engineers from industrial companies, one per vertical, review every technology before we commit capital.
