About the Webinar
Recorded: Thu, 5/7/26
Watch a conversation between Greg Mulholland, co‑founder and CEO of Citrine Informatics, and Kendall Justiniano, Managing Director of Growth Arc Advisors LLC on how AI is changing the way leading materials and chemicals companies develop, reformulate, and commercialize products. They focus on practical ways to make AI a growth and risk‑reduction tool in real R&D and business development organizations. Greg shares how leading companies are using AI to build usable digital representations of their materials systems to accelerate innovation and commercialization.
Materials executives today are being asked to deliver growth and margin in volatile markets, shorten development timelines and respond to customers at “software speed,” protect decades of tacit formulation and process know‑how as experts retire, and Hit sustainability and regulatory targets.
Greg and Kendall discuss how AI can turn scattered, under‑specified lab data into usable assets for R&D, capturing scientific intuition and heuristics to augments your best chemists and formulators, using bounded “search spaces” to keep AI recommendations manufacturable, scalable, and within cost and supply constraints, and enabling application engineers and business developers to respond to customer requests in days instead of weeks.
You can also read an executive summary, written by Kendall.
Who should attend:
- VPs of R&D, Technology, and Innovation in chemicals, polymers, bio- and specialty materials
- Business Development, Product Management and Application Engineering executives responsible for turning technical capability into growth
