The signing ceremony took place on March 22, 2023, at Advent’s headquarters in Charlestown, Massachusetts, and included senior executives from both companies. Under the agreement, Hyundai and Advent will work together to further develop HMC-Advent Ion Pair™ MEA, establish commercial criteria for MEA supply, and evaluate Advent's advanced fuel cell technology for Hyundai's heavy-duty and/or stationary application. Additionally, the parties will introduce advanced cooling technologies for mobility High-Temperature Proton Exchange Membrane (HT-PEM) fuel cell stacks. Advent will work closely as Hyundai evaluates these stack cooling technologies and ensure optimal performance under different operating conditions.
This partnership builds upon a commitment from both companies to develop sustainable energy solutions for carbon-intensive applications. Hyundai aims to accelerate the establishment of a hydrogen-based society based on its vision, Progress for Humanity, and this JDA aligns with that vision. The synergy generated by combining the two companies’ advanced technology in this JDA is expected to revolutionize the global MEA market by providing significant improvement in lifetime and an increase in power density versus current HT-PEM MEAs.
“The Advent team worldwide is proud and excited to enter into the next phase of a highly promising collaboration with Hyundai, with today's JDA signing at our Hood Park facility in Charlestown, MA. Through this collaboration, we aim to accelerate the shift towards sustainable energy and help shape a cleaner, more efficient future by assisting Hyundai in bringing its future mobility strategy to life,” said Dr. Vasilis Gregoriou, Chairman and CEO of Advent Technologies. “With our common goal to decarbonize heavy-duty transport, we are committed to contributing to Hyundai’s goal of building innovative, high-performance fuel cell solutions that will make a significant impact in reducing greenhouse gas emissions.”
“Hyundai is delighted to move into the next step of its collaboration with Advent, a leading company in the HT-PEM space. The Ion Pair™ HMC-Advent MEA, forming the heart of the fuel cell, will be developed by combining the HT-PEM know-how and material technology of both parties,” said Seung Hyun Hong, Vice President and Head of the Material Research & Engineering Center at Hyundai Motor Company. “It will prove Hyundai’s high-temperature driven material technical expertise and play a key role in our decarbonization goal and develop best-in-class high-temperature fuel cells, unlocking a key step for more widespread adoption of fuel cell technology in high-temperature applications."
"The successful completion of the Technology Assessment with Hyundai is a testament to Advent's technical excellence and industry-leading expertise in HT-PEM fuel cell technology. Our team's unwavering commitment has been instrumental in meeting the complex requirements of Hyundai's fuel cell projects,” added Dr. Emory De Castro, Chief Technology Officer of Advent Technologies. “Today's signing ceremony was an excellent opportunity for us to not only celebrate this important milestone but also showcase our newly opened R&D and Manufacturing facility, where we will be producing a range of innovative products, including the Ion Pair™ MEAs.

Overture Life Launches European Preorder Waitlist for DaVitri, the World’s First Microfluidics-Based Automated Vitrification Platform17.9.2025 07:00:00 CEST | Press release
Ahead of receipt of anticipated CE Mark, European customers can begin requesting DaVitri to expand patient access to high-quality IVF Overture Life, the innovator modernizing IVF to optimize reproductive freedom, today announced the launch of its European preorder waitlist for DaVitri, the world’s first automated vitrification platform. The waitlist ensures in vitro fertilization (IVF) facilities will be among the first in Europe to harness DaVitri to reduce manual workloads for their embryologists while eliminating operator variability, thereby providing patients with faster, more consistent procedures. As infertility rates spike worldwide, interest in egg freezing continues to rise while the infrastructure to support it lags behind. Egg freezing requires vitrification, typically a time-intensive, manual process vulnerable to human error that can only be performed by extensively trained embryologists. This has resulted in variability in egg and embryo survival rates that directly impa
