Dunia Innovations develops IRIS, an AI- and robotics-driven platform that automates the Design-Make-Test-Analyze cycle in self-driving laboratories for materials discovery. The platform targets electroactive materials such as electrocatalysts for green hydrogen, ammonia production, CO2 conversion, batteries, and solar cells. It serves industrial partners in energy, chemicals, and electronics sectors through co-development and licensing. The company integrates physics-informed AI algorithms with robotic automation and a data engine processing terabytes of multi-modal experimental data. Founded in 2022 by Alexander Hammer (CEO), Ahmed Ismail, and Marcus Ng, all from the University of Cambridge and University of Glasgow. In October 2024, it raised $11.5 million in Series A funding led by Elaia and redalpine, with participation from EIC, Pace Ventures, Kindred Capital, Deep Science Ventures, Anglo American, and industry angels.
