About SQM
SQM is a Chilean producer of lithium, iodine, and specialty plant nutrients.
How SQM works with startups
SQM's in-house startup accelerator run with an external partner completed its final cohort in 2024, and SQM's venture fund stopped making new investments in 2025. SQM continues to post real operational problems (for example, process and materials challenges at its plants) through an external industry innovation hub's venture-client program, where startups pilot solutions under live plant conditions.
