From the CEO
Our diligence to complete our filing with the FSE in Frankfurt, Germany has paid off, and is now complete. We expect the listing to be formalized in early December, placing us officially on a European market.
Given our experiences to date with group investor presentations I have decided to refocus our approach and will instead work with introductions to high net worth (HNW) individuals to raise further capital investment in Europe. In addition I have initiated conversations with several equipment and manufacturing companies in anticipation of an NREL certification of our NGD™ technology. Therefore, for now we are putting a hold on our plans for a formal investor roadshow in Europe until we receive certification.
I also want to mention that we are continuing to subtley raise public consciousness of Quantum and our research efforts by leveraging my name and experience in the solar industry. The most recent exercise was an article published in my name (co-authored by Erik Cathcart) that discusses the failure of Solyndra. The focus of the article was to highlight the positive aspects of recent solar industry fallout, especially for our segment - thin-film. The article received coverage at several online renewable energy blogs (two links on the left). The purpose of this is to establish Quantum as a voice in the solar energy industry and gain a seat at the metaphorical table, so when the time comes to make our technology announcement we will already be a recognized entity.
Thank you,
Steven
KAUST signs solar tech agreement
by Utilities ME Staff on Oct 11, 2011
KAUST signs solar licence agreement. (Getty Images) Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) has inked a licence agreement with the University of Toronto for rights to a new solar power technology.
Developed by Dr Edward Sargent, Canada research chair in nanotechnology at the University of Toronto, the quantum dot solar cell technology uses quantum dots to convert the sun's power efficiently into electrical energy.
Dr Sargent's work has been funded by KAUST since 2008 as part of its global collaborative research programme, according to a report published by state news agency SPA.
KAUST said the technology has made great strides towards the goal of breaking the present-day constraining paradigm between high efficiency and low cost in solar cells.
On April 15, 2008, QV, Quantum Ventures, Inc. (the "Registrant") entered into a License agreement ( "The Agreement") with Canadian Integrated Optics International Ltd. of Douglas, Isle of Man (CIOI), to manufacture and market CIOI's patent pending solar technology based on an optical rectenna. On May 7, 2008 the Agreement was subsequently Amended and executed by CIOI and on May 16, 2008 the agreement was executed by QV, Quantum Ventures, Inc. Closing of this agreement will occur on or about June 16, 2008 and is subject to certain terms and conditions. The Purchase Price for the license shall be paid in Cash, Shares of the Company's common stock and a 5% royalty.
Quantum Solar Power Corp. intends to be a manufacturer and marketer of solar panels based on the unique and patent pending solar technology. Multiple solar panels each of approximately 1 square meter in size will be used by customers to create large arrays of electricity generating capacity, when combined with other products will allow for the creation and transmission of electricity either for consumption by the owner or for selling to a utility. The process for manufacturing is based on known techniques in nanotechnology including guided self assembly and bottom up processing. It is expected therefore that in comparison with semiconductor patterning techniques which are used in standard solar cell manufacture that the capital equipment will be less expensive to purchase and to operate and that operating yields will be improved thus contributing to lower per panel costs.
As of June 30, 2008 we have sold 100,000 common shares of unregistered securities via private placement to 4 individuals on April 15, 2008 the total proceeds received by the Company was $200,000, no commissions were paid.
