Global Brain has invested in Numat Technologies, Inc. (Numat), a company leading the commercialization and adoption of Metal-Organic Framework (MOF) materials, through its 321FORCE Global Innovation Fund L.P. (321FORCE™). MOFs are nanoporous materials engineered at the molecular level by combining metal ions with organic ligands. This precise architecture enables exceptionally high selectivity and adsorption capacity for specific gases and chemicals. Numat leverages these unique properties of MOFs to operate a vertically integrated platform that spans across the entire value chain from molecular design and material manufacturing to the engineering and sale of integrated final products. Through this platform, the company provides innovative solutions to customers across various industrial sectors. Global Brain has decided to invest in Numat in recognition of its advanced technical capabilities and its demonstrated success in commercializing MOF-based solutions. Through this investment, Global Brain will collaborate with Mitsui Chemicals, Inc. to provide strategic support for Numat’s continued growth and expansion in the global market.
