See More nvestors in order to re-invent venture capital for advanced materials innovation. After successfully building and investing in numerous advanced materials start-ups over the past two decades, we established PVP to invest in and to support advanced materials entrepreneurs who are often ill-served by traditional venture capital firms.

Advanced materials is unlike other traditional venture capital sectors, which are dedicated to fully integrated end product manufacturing, distribution, and marketing in addition to technology development. Advanced materials are enabling and tend to have diverse applications across multiple industries: enabling new products, enhanced performance of existing products, and superior manufacturing process improvements.

Our partners recognize that many advanced materials innovations have ready applications in established industries and hence may be developed efficiently in customer and supply chain partnership with leading corporations rather than in competition with them.

We established PVP with a commitment to ethical conduct and the active support of each and every portfolio company.

We work with major corporations to assess their core needs and capacities. Accordingly we help establish collaborations and partnerships between our portfolio companies and leading established corporations that enhance development and commercialization efficiency.
