In Kista, a northern district of Stockholm, a new wave of deeptech startups is pushing the limits of physics and industry. In this Impact Loop series, we meet the innovators shaping that future.
Bright Day Graphene is developing an environmentally friendly, energy-conducting form of graphene — the “miracle material” used in everything from batteries to tyres.
The team is now preparing to scale up, with a new funding round planned to finance its first factory.
“There is strong demand,” says co-founder and CEO Malin Alpsten when we meet in their lab in the Electrum building — Kista’s flagship research hub.
