ABOUT NEWLAB PILOT SHOWCASE

To date, we’ve launched more than 100 pilots with 60+ industry and government partners (including Verizon, Mercado Libre, and BHP). 30% of pilots advance towards commercialization. Attendees will see the Newlab Method in action and gain valuable insights in the Energy, Materials, and Mobility sectors.

This isn’t your average showcase. Forget slide decks - we’ll show you in 3D what the best and brightest deep-tech founders are working on. Seven founders will take the stage to walk you through the exciting pilots they’re working on with Newlab and leading corporations like Ford Motor Company’s Michigan Central, NYC Department of Transportation, and Invest Puerto Rico.
