Our Mission

Advent new technologies

It is Materials Zone’s mission to accelerate the advent of new technologies and we plan to accomplish this by providing a set of tools and services that harvest, interpret, and exchange materials science-related data.

Improve data management

We believe that improving data management is the key to empowering scientists to develop new materials capable of changing the world. By addressing every level of the information exchange-acquisition, storage analysis, and sharing- we created a streamlined ecosystem to improve researchers’ workflow.

Provide collaboration tool

A scientific data management solution for all. From experts to beginners, there should be no boundaries when collaboration is concerned. We promote AI analysis at every level, and experimental working environments to assist in your acceleration of materials discovery.
