Rare-earth elements industry veteran and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Neo Performance Materials Inc. (TSX:NEO), Constantine E. Karayannopoulos, will deliver the keynote address.
Mr. Karayannopoulos started the rare-earths phase of his career in 1994 with Advanced Material Resources ("AMR") in Toronto, rising to become Chief Operating Officer. In 2005, following AMR’s acquisition of Magnequench, he became CEO of the combined company, renamed Neo Material Technologies.
In June 2012, Neo was acquired by Molycorp and Mr. Karayannopoulos joined the Molycorp board as Vice Chairman. He became interim CEO of Molycorp in December 2012 and Chairman in December 2013. While Neo stayed profitable and cash-flow positive, Molycorp filed for bankruptcy protection in 2015. Following Molycorp’s restructuring, Neo emerged under new ownership as Neo Performance Materials and Mr. Karayannopoulos was named Chairman in September 2016. Neo has since returned to being a public company with a listing on the TSX.
Mr. Karayannopoulos is also co-founder and Chairman of Neo Lithium Corp, a company developing a Lithium brine deposit and processing plant in Argentina.
Mr. Karayannopoulos is a Director of the Canada China Business Council, a member of the Advisory Board at the University of Toronto’s Department of Chemical Engineering and Applied Chemistry, and a member of a number of other Advisory Boards. He holds Bachelor and Master of Applied Science degrees in Chemical Engineering from the University of Toronto.
Other confirmed speakers for the event include representatives from:
G&W’s Founder and Chairman, Ann Pamplin stated, “Most people are totally unaware of how much they depend on the 17 rare earths in their daily lives. Countless high-tech and defense applications rely on these critical rare earths inputs. With the heightened global focus on the critical REE supply chains outside of China, since May of 2019, we felt compelled to broaden the focus of our critical materials seminar series with Miller Thomson to include REEs. Mr. Karayannopoulos is an indisputable thought leader within the REE sector, and we welcome the opportunity to host him as our keynote speaker for this important independent event, to hear his unique perspective. He joins a roster of other highly knowledgeable speakers drawn from various nodes within the REE and critical-materials supply chain.
“The timing for this REE event could not be more relevant,” Ms. Pamplin added. “The lack of US-based downstream REE production capacity presents a serious vulnerability to US national security and the security of its allies, as REEs are critical for defense technologies and economic growth plans. REEs are also vital non-substitutable components of renewable-energy supply chains, critical to meeting the US and Canada’s future economic, energy and environmental goals. Without downstream capacity to process REEs into compounds, metals and alloys, North America is unprepared for potential supply disruptions, price spikes and trade disagreements related to REEs.”
The event will be chaired by G&W’s Managing Director, Ty Dinwoodie, and Miller Thomson Partner and Head of Mining, Geoff Clarke, and will held under the Chatham House Rule. No recording of presenters will be permitted.
