Liquidmetal Technologies Inc. LQMT

What this company does

We are a materials technology and manufacturing company focused on the development and commercialization of products made from proprietary amorphous alloys and/or utilizing proprietary amorphous alloy manufacturing technologies. In addition to developing our own manufacturing facility through our subsidiary in China, we work with third-party manufacturing and commercial partners to develop and commercial products made from our proprietary amorphous alloys. Liquidmetal alloys are proprietary amorphous alloys that possess a combination of performance, processing, and potential cost advantages that we believe will make them preferable to other materials in a variety of applications. We were originally incorporated in California in 1987, and we reincorporated in Delaware in May 2003. In 1993, researchers at the California Institute of Technology (“Caltech”) developed the first commercially viable amorphous alloy in a bulk form. We obtained the exclusive right to commercialize the bulk amorphous alloy through a license agreement with Caltech and have developed the technology to enable the commercialization of bulk amorphous alloys.
