Tulsa, OK \u2013 May 12, 2024: <\/strong>Monte Caldera Technologies (MCT), a deep-tech company accelerating the discovery of sustainable materials through advanced physics modeling, is proud to announce the establishment of a new strategic office in Tulsa, Oklahoma<\/strong>. This expansion marks a major milestone in the company\u2019s mission to scale impact and deepen its U.S. presence.<\/p>\n

The move follows MCT\u2019s successful completion of the GRIDX to Tulsa program<\/strong>, a selective initiative that brought together 11 high-performance deep tech and biotech startups to explore expansion opportunities in the region. The program culminated in a high-profile Demo Day in May<\/strong>, which drew over 40 venture capital firms from across the country<\/strong>, highlighting Tulsa\u2019s growing influence in the national innovation landscape.<\/p>\n

MCT was awarded a non-dilutive grant<\/strong> to support its expansion \u2014 a recognition of the company\u2019s momentum, market potential, and groundbreaking work in materials science. The Tulsa office will be housed at Gradient<\/strong>, a premier innovation hub designed to accelerate the growth of deep tech ventures, alongside top-tier startups, VCs, and tech leaders.<\/p>\n

\n

“This grant and expansion are a testament to the strength of our team, our vision, and the transformative potential of our NESCGLE-based modeling platform,”<\/em> said Hector Medina<\/strong>, CEO of Monte Caldera. “Tulsa is quickly becoming a magnet for breakthrough innovation, and we\u2019re proud to be part of this emerging deep tech ecosystem.”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

As part of its expansion, MCT also announced the signing of a strategic collaboration agreement with The University of Oklahoma<\/strong> to advance the NESCGLE framework and co-develop new applications across materials science, biotech, and sustainability.<\/p>\n

Backed by visionary investors and supporters including GRIDX<\/strong>, Atento Capital<\/strong>, and the George Kaiser Family Foundation<\/strong>, MCT\u2019s expansion reflects strong belief in its scalable platform, which enables R&D teams to design next-generation materials with greater speed, precision, and sustainability.<\/p>\n

Tulsa\u2019s emergence as a deep tech hub<\/strong> \u2014 fueled by infrastructure, capital, talent, and forward-thinking partners \u2014 represents a powerful opportunity for startups like MCT that sit at the intersection of science and climate innovation.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWe see Tulsa not only as a strategic location, but as a place where science and innovation are being reimagined,\u201d<\/em> said Medina. \u201cWe\u2019re excited to grow here.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
