Technology Development

Source and Develop Good Ideas

By driving research and development, we connect new ideas to potential clients. We leverage relationships with universities, federal laboratories, and commercial companies. We’re proud to be preferred partners in developing technologies for the National Science Foundation, Department of Defense, the National Institute of Health, and NASA. AxNano is a strategic leadership and technology development group responsible for driving research and development for Triad Growth Partners.

We specialize in evaluating products and licenses while leveraging best practices and strategies designed to grow our portfolio.

Four Integrated Operating Groups Working Together

The Hatchery Fund

Capital for Promising Ideas

The Hatchery is an early-stage venture fund that invests in entities that need proof of concept or full-scale commercialization. We provide advice and mentoring through our Business Development Group and consulting partners. We acquire the rights to technologies for developments and in some cases, provide mezzanine financing. Our investments generally have a lifespan of up to six years, with liquidity at specific milestones. We reinvest Hatchery profits back into our organization to grow future opportunities, revenues, and profits.

The Idea Institute

Create New Business Opportunities

We approach problem solving with creativity, design thinking, and engineering methodology. Modeled after Stanford’s Institute of Design, small groups of experts come together to ideate and devise creative solutions.
