Licube makes ultra-high purity lithium and the separated isotopes fusion machines actually need, Li-6 and Li-7. The startup pitched at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 as a Startup Battlefield Top 20 finalist, arguing that enrichment capacity, not reactor design, gates the energy transition.
Advanced materials and nuclear programs want the same purified output, which gives the company a second market while fusion waits for commercial scale.
