THE MISSION
MTI, represented by the founder and CEO George Palikaras, is pioneering a new class of smart materials—that can block, absorb, and amplify light waves at the nanoscale. Within the nascent metamaterials market, MTI is printing nano-structures on flexible film to enable high performance next generation optical devices, including laser protection, energy-efficient light sources, affordable solar panels, and non-invasive medical diagnostics.
