The story of Berkeley Lab battery startup Seeo and its recent acquisition by Bosch demonstrates the windy path technologies travel from proven scientific principle to production for the marketplace.
“This is a great opportunity for groundbreaking technology to be realized by a large, multinational company,” said Elsie Quaite-Randall, Berkeley Lab’s Chief Technology Transfer Officer. “The seeds were planted here at Berkeley Lab. It takes time for the Lab’s breakthrough technologies to reach this stage, and it’s exciting to see the progression from fundamental science to startup technology to sought-after opportunity of global interest.”
