Thanks for the reminder Ian, totally forgot about it and clarifies for those not at the agm.

[ellissj] 26/9/2018 20:52

Indeed haz. And it's +nanene that reaches the parts other graphene/graphite cannot reach here lol ! Atb ellis

Ellis gnano def sounds like another string to the bow had a bit of a read up on them myself..

[club sandwich] 26/9/2018 20:19

Just listened to the podcast - great to hear them both so upbeat and excited after the slightly subdued one last time.

Have a kick-off meeting on Friday for one of my current projects with a team (inc the founder and CEO) of an asset mgmt company with £11bn AUM. Might try and drop VRS into the conversation, see if they've heard of 'em...

I am hoping that Gnanomat ESS partnerships include someone bigger than Zap&Go. Zapgo may well turn out to be a winner, but I have doubts about Voller not being vigorous enough - he doesn't inspire me with confidence (though with both Versarien and Gnano pushing, he might liven up!)

Taurus, you really are a cynical bear............bull, I meant cynical bull not a cynical bear (I think)?!

[luckyorange] 26/9/2018 19:43

o/t but people do mention it from time to time IOF seems to be at the bottom of a big (wonky) W, so there is hope there Squire. Do like 'the batman' pattern there but you do need spideysenses to know what it means 🦇

[ridicule] 26/9/2018 19:41

Super. Your post 36721. My thoughts exactly. It is not the recipe, it’s the control of the supply line. The most significant and exciting point though is that we have a 24 month window where it has now become clear, an awful lot of things are going to happen. The whole picture is, shall we say, becoming ‘tangible̵7;. Get that stock market open!!

[lovat scout] 26/9/2018 19:31

SG - the HAYD note is so desperate it’s sad really.

[forestfred] 26/9/2018 19:06

Taurus
I'm sure Teresa May and her team knew which Uk buisinesses we're travelling with her on the uk trade mission to China a while back don't you think ??
And Given top people from the DIT are working with Vrs currently.

I would bet she has heard of them .
Do a bit of research please .
To avoid embarrassing yourself on here .

If there are any shorts they will be looking for a dive tomorrow on the share price as it is the last chance in the current chart.

Under normal circumstances it should have hit 1.70 and down to 1.60 but it hasn't happened due to buyers, maybe it is one of the shorts buying back, interested to see how the volume goes tomorrow with one or two mm's trying to balance the books.

I also wonder if we will get some interest from Spanish buyers now... you know how it works!

[superg1] 26/9/2018 19:02

Lovat

You have to laugh. See how they have written top the CEO being booted out of his position.

Management changes: Recent senior management changes and expansion, including the appointment of Keith Broadbent as COO, should be deemed positive,

Here gnano are listed on a 'partner search' website and list their offering. Note towards the bottom, they have rec'd funding for research into solar energy harvesting and lightweighting of vehicles as well here. No idea how successful they were, but it's listed. Best ellis

"Gnanomat is a nanotechnology SME devoted to the design and production of carbon based nanomaterials for energy storage. We take advantage of our proprietary technology to create novel electrode materials in order to offer new solutions to energy storage systems (ESS) manufacturers. Gnanomat is meant to accelerate the path of nanomaterials such as graphene and metal oxides to their massive implentation is ESS, mainly supercapacitors.

Gnanomat was founded in 2014 and is a 100% private company. In this time we have been granted with national and European projects and fundings, which has allowed us to grow in all ways; actually our staff is composed by 8 highly committed professionals, we carry out our R&D activities is a fully equiped lab and we have built a pilot plant to scale up our production. 

We want to keep growing along with partners at both sides of the value chain (raw materials producers, technologists, ESS manufacturers, etc) contributing with our know-how and commitment.

Our main know-how is focused on the development and production of nanomaterials for energy storage. Gnanomat is in a pre-production stage and we will soon launch new nano-products with ultra high performance energy storage properties.

However, our expertise extends to the design, synthesis, characterization and upscale of nanomaterials. We offer our know-how to projects in which we could participate in these activities.


Since 2014, Gnanomat has been granted with multiple grants and fundings; the most important ones are:

SME Instrument: phases I and II (1.8 M�) www.grapheen.eu
Repsol Entrepreneur Fund (300K� approx.)
CDTI NeoTec (140 K� approx.)

Lovat

Avoid big time ;-)

[superg1] 26/9/2018 18:48

I'll take that one further

Given that NR was invited to number 10 to see her along with others pre trip then I'm sure she is well aware of VRS. As is David Cameron who did the same re Neill.

Ha Next thing you'll be saying Taurus is that royalty don't know him either. I mean how far are you going to go with your lies.

I don't think Trump has had a beer with him yet but I wouldn't write it off but for the future. I think he has had a good dose of completely barmy 'investors' so Trump needs to be told "Sorry too busy at the mo with China"

He could come to the golf day I suppose, he seems to like golf.

[woodpeckers] 26/9/2018 18:36

Perfect! :-)

[ellissj] 26/9/2018 18:35

Thx woody, does it look right now on yr screen ? Best ellis.

[woodpeckers] 26/9/2018 18:28

Ellis, you can edit your posts if you want to, just click 'edit' at the side of it and change any typos.

[lovat scout] 26/9/2018 18:26

50 page HAYD note from Hardman - presumably there’s a fund raising on the way. After I read the financial table at the foot of the first page I gave up. Scanned doc for VRS and it gets a write up in the competition section. It’s paid for research so DYOR! AIMHO of course.

[ellissj] 26/9/2018 18:14

'Grapheen project' twitter page appears dormant this year. But they visited trade shows in germany, china and spain in 2017. Best ellis

[ellissj] 26/9/2018 18:05

Gnano recd eu funding for the following project called 'grapheen.' Gives an idea of their ambition from 2015 i believe. Best ellis

"GRAPHEEN project aims at scaling up a green, affordable and straightforward process for the industrial synthesis of graphene-based materials for their use as new electrode materials in higher performance electrochemical energy storage devices: lithium ion batteries and supercapacitors.

Lithium Ion batteries (LIBs) are currently dominating the energy storage market, as they are to date best performing devices in terms of energy storage capability (energy density). However, LIBs are still facing challenges because they lack of a high power density, meaning these devices have long charging/discharging cycles. This issue is especially important in view of efficiently exploiting renewable energies and especially for supplying the required energy to power electric vehicles (when high energy inputs are required in a very short time). As alternative, supercapacitors emerge as alternative to Lithium Ion batteries because these devices can provide high energy inputs in just a matter of seconds because of their high power density. Nevertheless, in contrast with LIBs, supercapacitors cannot accumulate enough energy to supply during a long time (they have a low energy density). For these reasons, supercapacitors and LIBs are being used as complements one of each other in those highly energy demanding applications. In view of the rapid market entrance of electric vehicles and the big pressure towards using alternative energy sources to fossil fuels, the energy sector is facing an increased need for solutions to enhance the power density of LIBs and to improve the energy density of supercapacitors. The solution to achieve these improvements is the development of new and better performing electrode materials, as the performance of electrochemical devices mostly relies on the properties of the electrodes integrating them."

axo, it was covered in this RNS:

[grabster] 26/9/2018 17:55

Axotyl - We did notice that at the time if I remember correctly. And had one or two guesses at which one.

[axotyl] 26/9/2018 17:42

DaveMac's link is interesting - were we aware that we were supplying Nanene to a Chinese battery manufacturer?

Neill Ricketts, CEO of Versarien, commented: "Improved battery technology is a key area where the addition of high quality graphene can provide significant benefits. Alongside our work and collaborations in the areas of graphene-enhanced composites and plastics, battery technology is a key focus for Versarien.

"We are pleased to have entered into these new collaborations and to have received our first Nanane order from a Chinese battery manufacturer....."
