Acceleration Consortium

To create a healthier, sustainable world, we need the right materials-and we need them quickly.

At the Acceleration Consortium (AC), we build self-driving labs-that combine material science with the power of artificial intelligence, robotics, and advanced computing-to rapidly discover and design new advanced materials and molecules, from renewable energy and electronics to drugs.

Based at the University of Toronto and led by Alán Aspuru-Guzik, the AC is a global community of academics, government, and industry working together to expedite technology development and commercialization that addresses genuine market needs.
