Is Your Process Scalable, Profitable, and Investor-Ready?
​
If you're developing a new biobased product or process, a Techno-Economic Analysis (TEA) is one of the most powerful tools to assess its feasibility. A TEA helps you:
​
-
Evaluate the real cost of production at scale
-
Identify economic bottlenecks and technical challenges
-
Optimize your R&D with clear, data-driven targets
-
Build investor confidence with credible financials​
​
At Sustech Innovation, we specialize in turning complex technical concepts into clear, dynamic, and credible economic models that guide smarter decisions — from lab to comercialization.
Why Choose Sustech Innovation?
With over 20 years of global experience and a startup-friendly approach, we offer world-class TEA and process development support — without the cost or rigidity of big consulting firms.
We've worked with companies across North America, Europe, LATAM, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific, helping them move faster, scale smarter, and raise with confidence.
