Ilika plc (LON:IKA) CEO Graeme Purdy explains why one of Goliath’s most important advances may not be a headline performance metric at all, but the tighter consistency now being delivered by its automated pilot line. He also discusses how independent validation through About could speed adoption by battery pack designers, why battlefield testing is generating follow-on commercial interest from the defence sector, and how the Brompton collaboration could open another route to market for Ilika’s 10Ah solid-state battery technology.
