Sprint Challenge Brief:
Enhanced Surface Durability for Coatings
Submit Now Missed the Deadline? No problem! Late submissions are welcomed on a rolling basis. Submit today!BACKGROUND
In support of a global leader in coatings technology, TechConnect Ventures is calling for Entries describing improvements in the physical durability of applied coatings. The client is interested in learning about new additives, or new coatings themselves, that exhibit superior mar, burnish (wet and dry), and/or abrasion resistance without negative impacts to the appearance of the surface.
The goal of this sprint is to facilitate contact and interactions between the Sprint sponsor and active researchers or technology developers in this space. Submissions and novel concepts from individuals and organizations in academia and research are of significant interest, but all viable technology providers are invited to respond for potential commercial opportunities with the client.
