Couple of points. It seems Matt and David are in London with a customer who paid for mixed grills this evening. NR, who was in. London yesterday is in his bath in the Forest of Dean tonight not in No 10! Difficult to draw a Chinese RNS tomorrow conclusion from the above although not impossible as the deal could have been done yesterday. There could also be a collaboration deal re inks. Who knows?

I had assumed Inov8 would use Nanene on the basis no one else could crack the process. It looks to me that UOM have delivered for Inov8. Have they done this directly from academe with perhaps a royalty deal wifh Inov8, or is there another spin out in the offing? We need to understand the models do the quality of Graphene used.

I think team VRS are teasing the loyal shareholders! I can’t say I blame them!

Management can’t say anything that could be interpreted as sensitive or inside information so are playing a game to see who can get the most far fetched conclusion!

What is it with David Burton Total Market Solutions? Second time NR has mentioned him.

[johnveals] 19/6/2018 21:56

Graphene ? Defence uses ? Absolutely, a sharpened pencil makes a fearsome weapon.

[wjgdg] 19/6/2018 21:54

NR did say news to come on graphinks

[melf] 19/6/2018 21:49

Could be tyres :-#]

[a_game] 19/6/2018 21:48

Definitely nothing to do with shoes!

[grabster] 19/6/2018 21:46

Yes, definitely going mad. Sorry.

[smokeyjohnson] 19/6/2018 21:40

Am I going mad or is Matt Walker's latest tweet referring to shoes?

[wjgdg] 19/6/2018 21:38

Thanks for noticing. I'm optimistic but cautious.

[cazzer69] 19/6/2018 21:35

Well I have to say Wjgdg, you've been a little ray of sunshine since you joined.

Has graphene got defence uses? Seems to be good for everything else....add zero's if so.



Oil & gas use? You betcha....add a few more....

This could be interesting, if Smith tells the Americans all about Versarien's involvement in the making of Dominic Parson's medal-winning sled!


"Former American skeleton athlete Caleb Smith has joined USA Bobsled and Skeleton as their skeleton technical and development lead coach.

Smith, who competed himself between 2001 and 2011, had previously been a coach for British Bobsleigh and Skeleton. In his role there he helped guide Lizzy Yarnold, Laura Deas and Dominic Parsons to medals at the Pyeongchang 2018 Winter Olympic Games. Yarnold retained her gold from Sochi 2014 in the women's skeleton event, where Deas won bronze.Parsons then won bronze in the men's skeleton competition.

In his new role in the US, Smith will provide support to head coach Tuffield Latour on the International Bobsleigh and Skeleton Federation World Cup circuit. He will also provide strategic support on their skeleton development and technology programmes.

During his own career Smith won the 2007 US National Championships.
His best international finish came at the 2006 World Cup event at Lake Placid, where he finished second."






The story follows this previous announcement (25 May):

"Structural changes have been announced by USA Bobsled and Skeleton (USABS) after the team fell short of their performance goals set for the Pyeongchang 2018 Winter Olympic Games.

Mike Kohn has been promoted to bobsled head coach and Shauna Rohbock will serve as assistant bobsled coach.Ashley Walden also assumed duties as director of sport to oversee bobsled and skeleton programmes.
Brian Shimer will now focus on work as a driving coach while Tuffield Latour will be skeleton head coach.

Elana Meyers Taylor and Lauren Gibbs' two-woman silver was the only medal won by United States in either bobsleigh or skeleton events at the Winter Olympics."For most of our history, we’ve had the luxury of being able to focus on the majority of our resources to the top athletes,” Steele said.

“That is no longer a strategy we can maintain. "In 2018 we were unable to advance most of our top athletes and teams into medal contention and the pipeline of talent is not what it should be.
"We are making changes that will provide both a better coaching structure for our elite athletes and a more effective talent pipeline for the future.”

Kohn won a four-man bronze medal alongside Shimer at the Salt Lake City 2002 Winter Olympics."

No. Versarien have been working with other makers of shoes including Vivo-Barefoot, and (allegedly) one of the far east manufacturers employed by Nike.

Here's that newly launched training shoe, that we know (from NR tweets) does not use Nanene:

[20pc] 19/6/2018 20:52

while we are in silly mode does anyone remember this doc, if VRS got £1 or 50p per gram.

[graphite bot] 19/6/2018 20:36

I am pretty sure the U.K. government are going to build a Graphene valley of there own . It will be good for British jobs and
Vrs and the universities will be centre of it Vrs will produce the materials whilst working with the universities constantly updating there products. U.K will be world leader in Graphene. And will assist other countries with there own technology at a price. Booooom. Sorry for the booooom !

[wjgdg] 19/6/2018 20:34

Guys please don't ramp without cause, demeans genuine positive news.

[luckyorange] 19/6/2018 20:28

Where is anley? He usually has a feel for what is in the mix!

[luckyorange] 19/6/2018 20:25

I know / hope it's just for fun but I do dislike £3/£4 posts makes me grimace and I ain't pretty to start with.

Meetings with AIM, No.10, Chinese provinces I am putting 2 and 2 together and sure I am making 5 so not going to mention it, you in the know Mike Brenner?

NR absolutely no concerns about finance and confident about it intrigues me, PWC must be in the know as well having signed off the accounts.

What is going on?

[ratpat999] 19/6/2018 20:19

Calm down fellas we have no substantiated evidence that anything is going off with Vrs tonite do we ?

[mryl] 19/6/2018 20:17

If we had a deal with 5 provinces at once I would definitely not be selling anything for only £4!
