We’re pleased to announce that Ramzi Maalej, Co-founder and CTO of Fluoink Nanotechnologies, has been selected as a keynote speaker at the prestigious 2025 Smart Sensor Asia-Robotics conference. This invitation underscores the global recognition of our research foundation and thought leadership in advanced nanomaterials.
Professor Maalej’s selection reflects the depth of scientific expertise that powers Fluoink’s breakthrough technologies. With over 100 peer-reviewed publications and leadership of the “Photonic and Advanced Materials” research group at the University of Sfax, our CTO brings unparalleled academic credentials to our commercial mission.
World-Class Research Driving Commercial Innovation
His keynote presentation, “Advanced 2D-Nanocomposites for Ultra-Sensitive and Selective Bio-Detection,” demonstrates how cutting-edge nanomaterial research translates directly into real-world applications—the same scientific foundation that drives our patent-pending MH72 antimicrobial technology.
From Academic Excellence to Market Impact
This recognition highlights a key differentiator for Fluoink: we’re not just another technology startup. Our innovations are grounded in two decades of quantum physics research and multidisciplinary international projects. When Professor Maalej transitioned from purely academic research to co-founding Fluoink in 2022, he brought this world-class expertise directly into our commercial operations.
The advanced 2D-nanocomposite research showcased in his presentation represents the next frontier of our technology platform—expanding beyond antimicrobial applications into ultra-sensitive detection systems with applications across healthcare, environmental monitoring, and industrial sensing.

Building Bridges: From Tunisia to Global Markets
This invitation exemplifies our strategy of leveraging Tunisia’s emerging position as a North African innovation hub while building bridges to global markets. As we establish our London office and expand into new regions, recognition from international conferences validates our approach of combining academic rigor with commercial execution.
Our participation in Smart Sensor Asia·Robotics also signals our growing focus on the Asian markets, where demand for advanced sensing and antimicrobial technologies continues to accelerate.
The Science Behind the Solutions
While our current MH72 antimicrobial technology is revolutionizing paint and coating applications, Professor Maalej’s research into 2D-nanocomposites points to our future product pipeline. These advanced materials could enable:
🔬 Next-generation biosensors for medical diagnostics
🔬 Environmental monitoring systems for air and water quality
🔬 Food safety detection for packaging applications
🔬 Advanced anti-counterfeiting technologies for brand protection
Recognition Fuels Our Mission
As we continue scaling our antimicrobial solutions globally—from our MENA base through partnerships in Saudi Arabia, Kenya, and beyond—this academic recognition reinforces our commitment to science-driven innovation.
The selection of our CTO as a keynote speaker isn’t just an honor for Professor Maalej; it’s validation of Fluoink’s unique position at the intersection of world-class research and commercial impact.
