Ilika PLC has entered a joint development agreement with Brompton Bicycles to integrate Ilika's solid-state 10Ah Goliath battery cells into Brompton's next-generation foldable electric bikes.

Successful trials could lead to commercial licensing opportunities and help Brompton access markets with strict battery safety regulations, such as China.
