Company Description

Advanced Nanomaterials for High Performance Loudspeakers

ORA is a Montreal-based startup working with advanced nano-materials to produce unparalleled audio experiences. Their team of sound engineers, chemists and material scientists work with the exciting properties of *Graphene* (the strongest and lightest material known to man) to deliver smaller/lighter, more energy efficient speakers, all while remarkably improving sound quality. With a simple drop-in replacement of the speaker’s membrane, GrapheneQ can 1) extend the battery life of a portable audio device by up to 70% b) generate up to 4x the volume and c) significantly reduce the overall size of the speaker, allowing for bigger batteries/thinner devices. ORA's technology is disrupting a technology that has seen little innovation since its invention in 1921: the loudspeaker!
