October 1, 2024 — National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL)
While reading papers describing the use of enzymes to transform materials into biofuels as an alternative to using microbes, National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) research group leader Yannick Bomble first came across the eventual founders of Invizyne. Back then, Invizyne was not a company yet, but now Invizyne is at the stage where it is preparing an initial public offering (IPO), the first company from the Shell GameChanger Accelerator Powered by NREL (GCxN) program to do so.
“They have what they need to grow and what they need to make their biocatalysis process viable,” Bomble said. “They need to scale this technology up to show people that this works. I do think their technology is broadly applicable. They are doing the right thing, and they just need that little help. I believe they have a really good chance to succeed with their technology and the IPO.”
