AI Breakfast: Materials Discovery

​We are back from our Summer Break!

​From battery breakthroughs to biotech and semiconductors - the next industrial revolutions hinge on discovering and designing new materials. AI is quietly transforming this high-stakes domain: accelerating simulations, navigating chemical search spaces, and enabling entirely new modes of discovery.

​But how far along are we really? Are we just speeding up existing R&D workflows — or on the verge of automating science itself?

​Joining the panel are Jaqueline Hess (Engineering Lead, Cambrium), Alexander Hammer (Co-Founder & MD, Dunia), Jonas Köhler (Member of Tech Staff, Cusp AI) and Adrian Locher (Founder & GP, Merantix Capital).
