The Company History- From A 2 Z
  A2Z Technologies Corporation was founded in 1997 and focused on the development of customized instrumentation for primarily Government customers, mainly through the Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) Program.

  A2Z Optics Corporation was formed in 1998 as a commercial spin-off and focused on the commercial development of an optics engine for multiple commercial applications (both Government and Commercial). In 2005, the entire business division for this product was purchased by an outside venture. 

  A2Z Innovations, Inc. was formed in 2003 to help small companies bring products to market.  We partner with companies/entrepreneurs that have may access to a market, but are having difficulty developing a breadboard, prototype or production-ready product or system.  Under certain conditions, A2Z Innovations can perform product development services on a product-equity basis.  

  The Mission
   Our mission at A2Z is to provide the skills, knowledge, and experience necessary to transition feasible concepts to marketable products and to new business opportunities for our clients.

Our Experience:  Over 30 years experience in new product development.
For over 30 years, the principals of A2Z Innovations, Inc. have been developing new products and launching new businesses that cover the spectrum in technologies, applications, and customer bases.  From high-tech, to low-tech, to no-tech, the key element in all successful development efforts has been the assembly of the right team with the experience for market launch.
