This document summarizes the technology and capabilities of a company that works with nano-materials and nano-composites. The company derives revenue from formulating and producing high-performance composite materials, designing and building products enabled by nano-materials, and licensing intellectual property and nano-chemistry technology. The company has found a way to incorporate carbon nanotubes and other nanomaterials to significantly increase strength and toughness of materials without large cost increases. These enhanced materials allow for lighter weight and potentially multi-functional structures. Examples shown include dramatically increased tensile strength and fracture toughness over competitors' materials. Specific applications highlighted include a boat that can carry more weight than its own, and much better fuel efficiency and lower operation costs
