Holyvolt Acquires Wildcat Discovery Technologies in $73 Million Deal to Fuse Lab Breakthroughs with Production at Scale

Swedish battery technology company Holyvolt has completed the acquisition of Wildcat Discovery Technologies, the world’s leading battery materials development firm, in a move that fundamentally reshapes how next-generation batteries are created, optimized, and manufactured.

The combination creates a group with end-to-end capability from molecular discovery to pilot-scale production using a fully integrated High Throughput Platform, eliminating the bottlenecks that have traditionally separated laboratory breakthroughs from commercial reality.

The combined entity brings together Holyvolt’s pioneering process technology based on screen-printing and water-based processes with Wildcat’s proprietary High Throughput Platform (HTP), which can quickly generate terabyte-scale structured datasets through combinatorial experimentation. These datasets – among the highest quality in the industry – are primed for AI-driven analysis and accelerated learning.

The announcement follows Holyvolt’s recent €20 million funding round and will deliver world-class technical capabilities to the global battery sector across a broad range of industries including automotive, consumer electronics, aerospace, storage and defence.

The combined entity will serve partners and customers across the entire battery supply chain as a technology development partner, with commercialization models – including licensing arrangements – tailored to each customer’s specific requirements.

“Combined, we are building what we believe is the most compelling technology to deliver cleaner and more affordable batteries.”
