#29: The Road Ahead
Hello and THANK YOU to all of our investors, followers, and supporters, for your patience as we continue to build, test, refine, and prepare for an exciting 2025! We’ve been super busy working hard throughout 2024, so we haven’t posted much this year. It's no easy task pioneering a whole new industry, but we're definitely the team to accomplish it, and we're making a ton of progress each day.
Here's the Latest:
As a company, we continue to service automotive, aerospace and space industry clients and move forward SMA tire technology in general. This helps ensure that the company is thriving with some revenue and has the resources to deliver and scale our products in the future.
Just a couple of weeks ago, we were in Seoul, South Korea working with Hyundai Motor Group (Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis brands) to deliver our new car tire prototype. We met with key senior executives at their headquarters in Seoul, which included the CEO of Hyundai, the President of Kia Motors, the CTO of Hyundai Innovation, and many others. They were very impressed with our work and talks are ongoing.
Hyundai also invited us to be a part of their Open Innovation exhibition in Las Vegas, at CES 2025 (Jan 7-10). Yes, The SMART Tire Company will be sharing a space with one of the largest automotive companies in the world! A great way to kick off the New Year as we prepare to go-to-market with our award-winning bicycle and scooter tire.
We have formed a new partnership with yet another shape memory alloy (NiTinol) supplier to help speed up our supply chain and use even higher-quality material in building our SMART Tire products. We want to go-to-market not only with the most durable, and most safe tire product, but the very best product we can build, to make a serious impact on our customers and the industry as a whole.
Feel free to comment or contact us with any questions. We love what we do and greatly appreciate YOU all. Thank you for following our journey and the bright road we have ahead. We will continue to Reimagine the wheel™ as we build the next, great American tire company… The SMART Tire Company! Stay tuned!
Cheers,
The SMART Team
