Material Science Incubators

SRTX has launched SRTX Origins, a material science incubator aimed at accelerating sustainable innovation. This program is designed to empower material startups by providing them with tailored support, including pre-paid purchase orders, manufacturing resources, and expert collaboration. The goal is to help these startups reach the next stage of their growth and innovation.

The first startup to join SRTX Origins is Myco²Futures, a company developing a sustainable leather alternative made from mycelium, the root system of fungi. SRTX committed $100,000 in pre-paid purchase orders and offered manufacturing space at their Montreal facility to help Myco²Futures scale production and launch its first product. This collaboration highlights SRTX's commitment to fostering innovation and supporting startups with real, actionable support.

Katherine Homuth, CEO of SRTX, emphasized that SRTX Origins is about more than just supporting new ideas; it's about creating the infrastructure for a truly sustainable future. By providing startups with the resources they need to succeed, SRTX Origins aims to turn bold ideas into scalable businesses and drive the next generation of materials.
