Hydrothermal Graphite Deposit Ammenable for Commercial Graphene Applications
Does this company not appear to be a direct competitor to Zen? Have a look at their website. If they can create lower cost medical grade graphene will it not be hard to compete? Not needing a mine etc and reducung the human footprint with recycling waste materials (upcycling) what am I missing?
I assume Zen has an advantage in being able to supply EV battery manufacturers?

Universal Matter has developed cleaner, faster, and less expensive technology to commercialize graphene, a carbon-based nanomaterial with multiple applications. Our proprietary Flash Joule Heating process can convert inexpensive carbon sources into ultra-thin graphene layers with an almost unlimited number of applications.
Headquartered in Burlington, Ontario, Canada, with U.S. headquarters in Houston, Universal Matter’s vision is to build on its strong R&D foundation to scale its production process and become the world’s leading supplier of lower cost and higher quality graphene materials from petcoke, agricultural feedstocks, recycled plastic, recycled rubber and coal.

Clean technology is revolutionizing our world, and Canadian entrepreneurs are leading the way.
Whether it’s using drones for crop protection and higher yields like Precision.ai, creating on demand commercial ventilation systems that recover wasted heat like Intellinox, or converting petroleum refinery by-products into high quality activated carbon like AdvEn Industries, clean technologies are transforming every sector of our economy.
Net Zero is all the buzz right now, but how does it relate to cleantech? Well, to achieve Net Zero, we need new emerging technologies to gain mainstream acceptance in the marketplace.
And that’s where SDTC comes in. We find, fund, and foster the entrepreneurs who will lead the transition to a zero-carbon, zero-waste economy. Moving at the speed of business, we catalyze cleantech innovation at every stage: with seed funding to identify emerging innovations; with start-up support to develop and demonstrate these innovations; and, with scale-up investments to give firms the final nudge toward commercialization, adoption, and market leadership.
