Wooferwax, most of all QMC is a volume producer. Business plan is to sell 2000Kg and more, year after year in high volume sales. Can't get there 20mg at a time. Batch producers sell small amounts because thats all they can do.
This weeks PR is a gambit - it shows our hand and invites a response.
With QMA, we are big dogs now. If you read the PRs, the size of the deal, the partners, the ambitious scope of the project, are amazing. And this year they doubled down and committed to two R&D and Production centers! They have already decided one is not enough, they need two, and building them concurrently, not waiting for the first to be built. That is jumping in with both feet. And contrary to what some doubters say, they are not waiting for some buildings to be built to start doing business. All we have to do is supply the QD expertise and production for our part.
So what has Squires been doing this year?
First, building that expertise. Using the automated process to rapidly test variations which has resulted in really high efficiency QD and new varieties of QD, and we see in this week's PR many different nanoparticles, some with hundred million dollar potential markets themselves! Noone else can offer uniform nanosize metals like us. The quantum effect, plasmonic properties, high surface area to size ratio - all are high advantages, not to mention it can be made at low prices because it is an automated process! Some are mundane uses like corrosion prevention paints, or catalysts for exhausts or hydrogen production, or all kinds of inks, but all could be huge markets.
Second, there has not been news lately, but QMC said they were working with five QD display film makers, which might lead to a joint venture with QMC gaining not only QD product sales but also part of the film profit or royalties.
By Squires keeping his options open and having many potential projects, this gives him negotiating leverage with all parties.
