Buyers waiting for sells , got to get in there quick when they do!

Good that Dennis Koltsov is out there helping them identify and classify the good the bad and the ugly 🌞 they must have a lot of confidence in the VRS team.

Our other collaborations that we outlined in the annual report continue to progress in line with the Company's expectations.

all coming along nicely...don't listen to the scumbags.

[jointer13] 22/10/2019 11:04

and of course we have this.

As reported on the 26 July 2019, the Company had signed a Letter of Intent with its Asian based textile partner. I can confirm that advanced discussions have now been held with the intent to sign a formal commercial partnership in the near future.

gone from provincial to national.

BIGT was founded in 2017 by Aero Engine Corporation of China ("AECC"), Beijing Institute of Aeronautical Materials ("BIAM"), and the Beijing Government, based on nearly a decade of graphene research by BIAM. BIAM and the National Graphene Institute at the University of Manchester have been working together on a wide ranging five-year collaborative research project since 2015.

BIGT has assisted Versarien in successfully setting up a wholly foreign owned enterprise (WFOE) with a registered office in Beijing;

"it has now been successfully incorporated as the Beijing Versarien Technology Company Limited and the business licence has been granted by the relevant Chinese authorities."

"The strategy agreed between BIGT and Versarien is to create an incubation hub in Beijing in partnership with the Chinese Government's Administrative Committee of Beijing Petrochemical New Materials Science and Technology Industry Base, Versarien and CIGIU in return for access to a funded science park, access to a pipeline of projects and to locate a factory in a funded Sino-British industrial park within Shangdong Province."

"The collaboration between Versarien, BIGT, CIGIU and the Beijing Government is completely aligned with the industrial strategic positioning and trend. We will lend our full support, without hesitation. We will also liaise with other Beijing Government Departments and the Beijing District Government to progress this initiative.

"i'm looking forward to all the news that's due to arrive"

yeah? when? you don't have a clue, do you?

[hermanngoring] 22/10/2019 10:22

Back in April Versarien announced an MOU with a mysterious Chinese entity BIGT whereby the Chinese (an entity with zero web presence or even a phone number) would inject an unspecified sum into the company for a 15% stake. The shares soared to 137p and CEO Neill Ricketts promptly cashed in several hundred thousand pounds worth of stock. Ricketts told investors the deal would be signed on around the September AGM. But instead of a deal he brought a new name into the picture CIGIU. It claims to have 18 offices around the world including in London. But no-one has been able to locate it and Ricketts refuses to say where it is.

After the Woodford scandal...how is the house of Hargreaves Lansdown looking? Read from Chris Bailey HERE

Versarien shares are now 95p. One suspects those who bought the shares off Ricketts into the spike he created are not happy. But the market cap is still £146 million. For a loss-making business, running out of cash and whose core graphene business has sales of well under £1 million a year that sounds too good to be true… it remains an outstanding short.

no thanks.

i'm looking forward to all the news that's due to arrive.

one of the things I like about this co. is you never know when news is about to drop.

but we know its coming.

very exciting times ahead.

700 posts later, still collaborations about collaborations, 130p resistance proved impossible to break, now its down to 106p resistance, with support 90p, so stuck in this band, future direction depends on which level breaks.

Will keep on the watch list but prefer adding to STX and buying more FOXT, the latter for recovery and also SAGA

They were a timber company in Finland . Clearly this is why Microsoft own them now.I suspect you knew all that.

[lovat scout] 22/10/2019 08:37

That would be pure speculation LO.... ! 🤔

[luckyorange] 22/10/2019 08:14

Who is next lovat?

[luckyorange] 21/10/2019 21:53

Who is Nokia?

[rogerbridge] 21/10/2019 21:47

pot calling kettle black. FCA a waste of time and money.

[par4artthou] 21/10/2019 21:34

Did Panorama do any research before making this choice of "expert"
Perhaps they should now investigate the FCA as well. They did not come out of this at all well.

[93marquez] 21/10/2019 21:33

I must say I laughed when TW appeared as a witness for the prosecution. I wish Panorama would do an investigative item on him....

[whiteslice] 21/10/2019 21:23

Anybody else watch BBC Panorama tonight..? Interesting choice of guest expert..

[rogerbridge] 21/10/2019 20:44

The really stunning news on the new Graphinks RFID transponder was the 11 metre range. This has never previously been possible with Graphene.
Versarien have brilliant scientists at their disposal, Dr Stephen Hodge and Prof Andrea Ferrari are some of the best. Prof Ferrari heads up the European Union’s Graphene Flagship.

[superg1] 21/10/2019 19:57

Streuth what did you mention that for woody, the web is littered with papers re Rfids, the flexible arable devices with Cambridge graphene ink involved at practically every turn where Nokia appear, Varta too.

These are the underlying matters which started years ago in the quest for improving technology.

So now I best have a look at the recent comment about Rfids to try and work out what may be going on.
