A strategic Collaboration
A strategic co-location
For the cities of the future
For you...
PUZZLE X is strategically co-located with the world leading event for smart cities: The Smart City Expo World Congress. With over half of the world’s population now living in cities, there is a growing synergy between urban innovation and materials technologies in core areas such as mobility, energy, recycling, IOT, healthcare and infrastructure. PUZZLE X have designed a multi-disciplinary program, VIP tours and curated showcases to highlight materials technologies for the Smart City Expo audience and stakeholders.

What are frontier materials?
Frontier Materials are materials at the bleeding edge of science, innovation and development. Each decade, century, era of humanity is marked by the Frontier Materials of that era. Three thousand years ago, bronze was a Frontier Material, as was steel 200 years ago, polymers 70 years and silicon 50 years ago. As Frontier Material research and development progresses and they become more commonplace, they move towards the classification of legacy materials with an established supply chain and with a slower innovation and R&D trajectory. The Frontier Materials are the building blocks of the future and at the intersection of each era, they offer us the elements, tools, capabilities and power to mould and shape the technological trajectory and define human civilization, shape of society and human "life".
The question is:
What are the Frontier Materials of the 21st Century and how will they transform industries, create new ones and change the shape of human life in the next few decades?
