That does not put us in a confrontational position.
Surely we wish to work with all potential bases.
Think your just looking for excuses to be critical.

Who are the big players?

It maybe a long time before it is profitable in the absolute sense, but that does not mean it is uninvestable.
It may see profit in certain avenues whilst others may take longer.
Not sure what your question is in that sense.
There are no straight lines.

How is it untrue?

28th July 1540. Perhaps you missed it?

Don’t know how I have not previously been aware of Thomas Swan.
Thnx for highlighting.
Maybe a few on here to whom that is a new name.
Interesting web site, although not much that is new, but, interesting none the less.

My hope and understanding is that it would be VRS as I seem to recall it first came through the innovation centre at Manchester Uni etc

Got to agree, maybe insignificant.
Seems we have been at lots of convention type presentations or days but remain stuck on the starting blocks all the time.

I would take it that in such challenging times cutbacks on salary are a necessity,
I would expect all companies to trim wages in harder times.
Matt is probably surplus to requirements now and not a generator of income at this time.
David Kerr leaving may be due to him being one of the older brigade from the earlier days and wants to retire, possibly. Maybe he will get a severance package for his service over the years?
Others I cannot comment on as I have had no engagement with them.
Just some thoughts and speculation on my part.

Maybe this was an interview to quieten the doubters for a shade longer?

Case of “The Sperm has turned”.?

I feel the pain your expressing, I understand.
My option, the company will be bought out, the prospect for this tech is bigger than this company, the future for graphene is bigger than this company.
The people behind this company have done nearly all they can and they will if not already realise it is for someone else to take it on while they retire to safer pastures..
Judt Hope when it happens it will be sold at a profit that benefits the long waiting shareholders.
Anyone got an alternative narrative?

This obvious in its disappointment, however the the world economics shows how close we are to it taking a long time for world economics to recover.
Expecting investment in new tech will always suffer when belts are tightened.
Unfortunately as small time investors we are vulnerable.
The tech is obvious in its long term future, just so annoying that it is taking so long, and while it takes so long companies like this are vulnerable.
A takeover looks a greater possibility than ever and maybe the company’s saviour.
Our saviour???

fathereimer, that would be a great price in my estimation.
More than worth it though, but I would be surprised and delighted with anything over £3.
Although I would feel cheated at less than £4.
Been a long ride with many holders staying loyal.
I remember meeting someone at a VRS event 5 or more years ago who was in super deep.
Don’t know if he is still around, if not hope he dud not lose loads.
Good luck to you and all.

I have to agree that buy out potential is high.
The Directors have been around some time now and possibly see themselves as possibly moving on. Once the business grows towards its full potential it has the makings of opportunity for a larger mover in the world.
That does not make it a bad prospect.

Cannot find a link or reference to graphene searching the website of Ecocerm but certainly ticks all the right boxes.

Interesting article in Interestingengineering.com
Saying that space elevators could be possible within two to three decades, although a material twenty times stronger than steel may be required.
NR has frequently made the occasional comment on space elevators for the past few years, all be it without firm foundation.

It is worth noting, the introduction of new manufacturing techniques and materials have a large obstacle to overcome when introduced. Companies are based on known and trusted technology and a conversion to new ones is expensive and disruptive to the investment that design and production has invested in them.
Example.
Hence, why change takes time.
Yes graphene tyres are better but conversion to the manufacture of them along with the cost to the customer base takes time also.
I see this latest development as an addition to lubricants as a quick and easier way to market in the early stages of graphene acceptance.

What could be driving this consistent upward push?

Well. A lot to take in , sure I will never understand it all.
However, the avenues for medical treatment and monitoring appear transforming.
Certainly, if you can get a product into health care and monitoring it’s a goldfield.
Thnx for posting.
