Roundtable Discussion; The Future of Mineral Sands. Watch the video here.
I'll stick my neck out and say I'd expect £100m plus for STC. When the likes of Unilever,who are trying to enter this market, can not compete financially with with STC, what it is worth to them to become the No1 world leader in the future of skin innovation, overnight? It's pennies to them but potentially worth Billions. Take another listen to Gerry explaining it, https://youtu.be/PcsFNvjurpg?t=1629
Big ticket deals popping up from all divisions. Impossible to guess what and when the next one will be. Well done Gerry and team, again!
Just tweeted it Vascular, will add it as very relevant.
I have bud, Gerry also confirmed on Twitter that they do test for radiation on skin, so looking hopeful.
Cheers smeeno. Unless the US military want to test cosmetics for their troops, I can't see any other relevant work they may be carrying out for IARPA, who were seen to be a STC client on the recent AGM slide.
From the TEI-REX military radiation project. Won't post the link as you have do unzip it etc, unless someone wants it? Q&A ....IARPA is planning for a kick-off by spring or summer of 2022 but this is dependent upon source selection
and negotiations. IARPA expects to award all performers simultaneously.
Basically they'll announce tender winners when the project starts. Unless I'm way off the mark we could see a contract win for STC anytime now. https://tenders.globaldatabase.com/tender/targeted-evaluation-of-ionizing-radiation-exposure-tei-rex-2021-11-10-12-26-38-404242

There is also new tech emerging in the space. For example, Skin Trust Club allows consumers to measure their skin's microbiome by sending a sample off to a lab and get given a report of how to better improve it with a personalised routine. Skin Trust Club also gives you the ability to track how your skin progresses through a mobile app. It likely won't be long before tech like this makes its way into our colour cosmetics.

T.Rat, good spot. Seems like we have a connection with them, they trust us to do the job.
He's skipped answering my tender question though! Silence is Golden?
