Hi Swarna, Below are my questions in no particular order: - Is pilot paid or unpaid? Exclusive or non-exclusive? - Alternative markets - tell me more about the applications in Defense & Space and Materials & Chemicals? - Barriers to entry seem relatively low… tell me a...

Do you have a signed letter from the university claiming no ownership in your IP? As a Babson College graduate (2023), I benefit from their entrepreneurship-friendly IP policy. Babson, ranked #1 in entrepreneurship education for over two decades, intentionally avoids claiming ownership of student innovations to foster entrepreneurial success. While we don't have a formal letter, this stems from Babson's strategic choice to eliminate tech transfer barriers for student entrepreneurs.

Hi Swarna, I would like to thank Jason and you for the extended Q&A. I would like to know more about the team behind. Is it you who developed this technology and strategy? Is possible to present the team in the Upcoming call? Lastly, please let me know when the Upcoming ca...

Hi Alexandros! Yes, it is myself and my team that have built Unsmudgeable in house. I developed the idea and strategy. As the founder of Unsmudgeable, I've immersed myself in polymer chemistry, working alongside my team in the lab Monday-Friday to develop our innovative product. While not formally trained as a polymer chemist, I've gained substantial hands-on experience through our rigorous development process, which includes over 500 experiments conducted over the last year and a half. This ...

Hi Swarna, please allude further to the market potential for non eyewear markets - the military and aerospace markets could be huge - scopes, NVGs, touchscreens for drone & aircraft pilots etc etc in my view. Thanks.

Absolutely! Our market research aligns perfectly with the touchscreen and advanced optics opportunities. We recently engaged with a casino screen manufacturer in Arizona who was specifically interested in reducing screen cleaning frequency, which directly translates to significant cost savings for them. The potential applications are vast. Our team has identified a comprehensive market opportunity encompassing touchscreens, optics, and eyewear, estimating a total addressable market of $789 bi...

Hi Swarna, to what extent do you see the global trend of increasing Myopia cases benefit/impact the business? Some projections say that by 2050, nearly 50% of the world's population (around 5 billion people) are expected to have Myopia. In Asia it seems that some countries hav...

Hi Dion, Thank you for your insightful question. Our team has been closely tracking two significant trends in the eyewear market: the rise of "smart eyewear" (such as VR headsets and Meta Raybans) and the growing aging population's eyewear needs. According to the UN Population Prospects, 16% of the world's population is projected to be over 65 by 2050. This demographic shift is expected to drive two key market developments: 1. A substantial increase in eyewear purchases 2. A heightened demand...

Is this for new glasses only? You cover both sides (not shown in your graphic) of the lenses? Glasses are already expensive, everyone wants to maximize profit, but a 37.5x mark-up? This will be difficult for those already paying $300+ for glasses, especially since many people ...

Hi Raymond, 1) Currently, our B2B model involves licensing our coating to lens manufacturers to ensure the most effective market introduction. You're correct that Unsmudgeable is presently focused on new eyewear. Our strategic plan includes developing a direct-to-consumer (D2C) line once we've established enough market presence to cover the manufacturing, marketing, and customer service costs associated with such an expansion. 2) Our coating covers both sides of the lenses completely. 3) For ...
