Nano One Materials accelerating path to revenue - Dan Blondal provides an update on the business

Published: May 29, 2024, 9:02 a.m.

Stuart Fieldhouse talks with Dan Blondal, CEO of battery materials firm Nano One. Nano One is listed on the Toronto Venture Stock Exchange [TSX:NANO] and NASDAQ [NDQ:NNOMF].\n\nSince Dan was last on the podcast, Nano One has progressed with its panel of strategic partnerships, including with giants like Rio Tinto and Sumitomo Metal Mining.\n\nNano One has established itself as an important component in the fast-growing area of lithium-ion battery supply chains thanks to its proprietary One Pot process. Dan takes questions from me on some of the challenges the battery sector still faces, and whether companies in the West can continue to compete effectively against Chinese counterparts.\n\nAlso up for discussion is Nano One\u2019s recent announcement of a further partnership deal, this time with Worley Chemetics. We talk about how this could be a possible game changer for Nano One, helping it to quickly reach new markets under a time scale that would not previously have been possible. Dan also fills us in on his plans for the next 12-18 months.\n\nFor more great investing ideas, news and insight, sign up to our FREE newsletter at www.thearmchairtrader.com/newsletter/\n\nFor stock tips and deeper company analysis get a free trial of Armchair Trader Plus+ at www.thearmchairtrader.com/register\n\n00:00 Intro to Nano One\n01:47 What kinds of batteries use Nano One's products?\n02:39 The investment by Sumitomo Metals Mining\n04:33 The Worley Chemetics connection\n11:49 Waste in the battery production chain\n14:40 Commercialisation plans for Lithium-ion materials\n19:43 Nano One's portfolio of IP and patents\n22:33 Can the West compete effectively with China in this space?\n24:41 Future plans and government funding
