We are delighted to announce that the University of Oxford Isis Fund II has completed an investment in Bodle Technologies Limited, who have developed a novel, smart material for use in low-energy high-resolution displays and glazing. Bodle’s display device offerings offer high flexibility, ultra-high resolution, and very low energy consumption, making a highly attractive proposition for the global display market.
The invention, by a team led by Professor Harish Bhaskaran and his postdoctoral researcher Peiman Hosseini at the University’s Department of Materials, attracted attention from industry following the publication of a paper in Nature in 2014. The BBC recently highlighted the technology.
The funding round was led by Oxford Sciences Innovation, the £320m investment company established to provide capital and scaling expertise to Oxford spin-outs.
