'Beta' Business Strategy Launches Breakthrough Technology

    BOSTON--July 7, 1999--The "beta" strategy of the software industry is being used to launch a breakthrough technology. Reflexive Materials Technology(TM) (RMT(TM)) is a new 'open protocol' for the materials world. It has the potential to change the shape of virtually every manmade item from homes to cars to computers. UniStates Technology, the company that developed RMT, is adopting the innovative "beta" strategy to bring RMT to the market in record time.
    Rather than lock the technology away in a lab until it is perfected, UniStates is seeking to team with companies who want an early start to adapt RMT to their particular markets and get a head start on their competitors. Wendy E. Owens, President and CEO of UniStates, explained the strategy this way: "RMT can make any product stronger, lighter, and less costly to make. It has endless applications. Rather than pursue all these application ourselves, we are issuing RMT in 'beta' form to allow other companies to work with us to develop applications for their markets."
    "This is the way new computer software is issued," Owens said, "and RMT is the 'new operating system' for the materials industries. Anybody and everybody can use it to build virtually anything and everything made with solid materials." Owens points out that "the implications are staggering because RMT creates vast new options for engineers, architects, and manufacturers." She added, "by working with those that will use RMT, we can develop the commercial applications that will have the greatest practical value and quickest market impact. This is the fastest way for RMT to benefit consumers."
    RMT is essentially a new system for designing and making materials and structures of all types. UniStates technicians and scientists working in Massachusetts and Virginia have proven RMT with numerical modeling and controlled experiments. More thorough validation and more accurate modeling will precede the full commercial development of RMT. Obviously companies that participate in this stage of the development will be strategically positioned to use RMT in commercial applications.
    Owens said, "RMT optimizes the weight-bearing performance of materials. It also makes structures lighter and cheaper." For example, beams made using RMT will bear more weight than normal beams. This creates a myriad of new options for revolutionizing the open space designs of office buildings, malls, and homes, to name only a few examples. Owens said, "RMT is the technology for reshaping our world. We can use it to make an endless number of old products better and to create amazing new products for 21st century consumers."
