    FROM helping plants grow better to soothing backaches, the ceramic alloy technology developed by JAH Tech has a wide range of uses – and the Singapore-based company is trying to bring all these to market.

    Deep tech research may often result in failure, noted chief executive officer Tan Chong Hui: “There’s always the risk of certain things not working out.”

    “But where JAH Tech comes in is to identify those that already have some positive impact, and we are able to create some commercial value out of it.”
