Motivated by the need to reduce aircraft engine noise, NASA’s Bio-inspired Broadband Acoustic Absorber (“Bioliner”) is patented technology that can be developed into multifunctional structures that can absorb sound and might also transfer heat and/or carry a load. Bioliner was one of 12 technologies from federal and university labs that were selected for the FedTech Startup Studio 2021:1 National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA),2,3 National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST),4 National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA),5 and Northeastern University.6 From August to December 2021, FedTech coached teams of entrepreneurs who explored the commercial potential of the bioliner by performing customer discovery interviews. Results of that investigation supported the claim that the bioliner might have broad commercial potential, beyond aerospace use
