Mesodyne Inc., the developer of solid-state portable power generators for small unmanned autonomous vehicles and mobile platforms, announced the closing of a $1.75m seed financing led by Nor’easter Ventures. TechStars, Luminate, Capital Factory, and the co-founders of Razor's Edge participated in the financing. This seed financing complements more than $3.5m in non-dilutive funding that Mesodyne was previously awarded from NSF, DOE, ARMY, DARPA, Mass-Ventures and AFWERX.

Mesodyne Inc. is a Mass Ventures’ START Phase II winner. The program helps deep tech startups convert their Small Business Innovation and Small Business Technology Transfer research (SBIR/STTR) into businesses and jobs in Massachusetts.

Mesodyne Inc. has been awarded a Phase II National Science Foundation (NSF) Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grant. The SBIR Program Provides Seed Funding for R&D, which Mesodyne will use to further develop its LightCell™ power generator.

Mesodyne Inc., a Massachusetts-based company, is a START Phase I winner. The program helps deep tech startups convert their Small Business Innovation and Small Business Technology Transfer research (SBIR/STTR) into businesses and jobs in Massachusetts.

Mesodyne Inc. has been awarded a research contract by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) as part of the Thermal Engineering using Materials Physics (TEMP) Program. The program helps companies to develop materials and physics to control the wavelength and directionality of radiative heat transfer while simultaneously withstanding harsh high-temperature environments. Applications for TEMP technology include Mesodyne’s LightCell™ power generator and other thermophotovoltaic energy converters, as well as turbine engines.

Mesodyne Inc. has been awarded an AFWERX Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) contract, in partnership with Argonne National Lab to refine their compact solid-state generator with 10 times the energy density of a lithium ion battery.
