Lina Energy Successfully Graduates APC’s Technology Developer Accelerator Programme – Boosting Tech and Validating Business Model
Run by the Advanced Propulsion Center UK (APC), the prestigious Technology Developer Accelerator programme supports ambitious UK-based micro, small and medium-sized companies that are developing net-zero-enabling technology, products or services that want to accelerate their route to market and grow.
It focuses on five key areas of development: new product development, market strategy, intellectual property management, investor readiness, and networking.
LiNa joined Wave 5 of the TDAP in July 2021, and throughout the programme, it has boosted our technology from initial concept cells through commercial demonstrations of fully integrated systems. Through a stage-gate process, the programme also substantiated LiNa’s business model, at each stage testing that it had a laser-sharp focus on beachhead markets, demonstrable commercial traction with customers, and a robust business plan into the future.
The programme concluded with a Demo Day event at the APC’s headquarters in Coventry, where LiNa showcased its progress and pitched to a group of industry peers and investors.
Will Tope, LiNa CCO, said, “LiNa really benefitted from working with the APC on TDAP. What stands out is how the programme helped refine LiNa’s value proposition, enabling us to match technical excellence with a clear sense of purpose and where we can bring the most value to the clean energy market.”
