I never heard of a bunch of them either. HBO and Showtime are showing some 2024 movies so I have been watching them. Last night I watched Ride which was about rodeo people. I wasn't sure if I would like it and I did doze off a bit but rewound it and then watched the whole thing. It was ok. 3.0/4

2D Photonics CEO discusses plans to scale up advanced graphene-based photonics technology

Frontier IP Group portfolio company 2D Photonics CEO Ben Jensen talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s recent €25 million funding round and its plans to scale up its advanced graphene-based photonics technology. Jensen explained the growing demand for faster, more cost-effective data transmission solutions, driven by sectors such as AI and 5G. “What’s required today is ever faster data transmission at lower costs,” he said. According to Jensen, the new device architecture 2D Photonics has developed simplifies photonics design while significantly improving performance. This innovation is crucial for enabling higher bandwidth and lower power consumption across data networks. The funding will support the expansion of the leadership team and the development of pilot production capabilities. Jensen emphasized the importance of execution at this early stage, noting that the goal is to demonstrate the scalability of the technology for semiconductor foundries and ultimately reach high-volume manufacturing. He also discussed future applications, pointing to sectors such as space and defence, where rugged environments make traditional photonics challenging. In addition, the technology has relevance for Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS), where rapid data transmission between sensors is critical for vehicle safety.

Allergy Therapeutics turns the corner, targets market launches

Allergy Therapeutics PLC (AIM:AGY, OTC:AGYTF) chief executive Manuel Llobet and chief financial officer Shaun Furlong talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s financial turnaround and ongoing progress across key clinical programs. Allergy Therapeutics reported a return to operating profit before R&D, exceptional and fundraising costs, supported by topline growth and strict cost control. Llobet highlighted that the company saw a 4% constant currency growth in euro-denominated sales—double that of the previous period—driven by improved supply chains and the strong performance of new and registered products. “The top line is good in terms of quantity and quality,” he said. Furlong added that these results, along with the recent financial restructuring, demonstrate a clear path to sustainable health. The company’s cash position rose to £21.7 million at the end of December from £12.9 million in June, aided by external funding and shareholder support. On the clinical side, Llobet described the Grass MATA MPL program as a potential “game changer”, with a Marketing Authorisation Application submitted in Germany. He also noted the progress of the Polyvac Peanut program, which aims to offer a short-course treatment capable of disease modification, differentiating it from current therapies. The company remains focused on progressing these pipeline assets while maintaining financial discipline. For more exclusive interviews, visit Proactive’s YouTube channel.

Time Finance CEO on Q3 update: record lending & growth to resilient small businesses

Time Finance PLC (AIM:TIME) CEO Ed Rimmer takes Proactive's Stephen Gunnion through the company’s performance in the third quarter, highlighting a record gross lending book and improved arrears management. Rimmer explained that Time Finance provides funding solutions to small businesses, including invoice finance, asset finance, and secured loans, typically supporting businesses with turnover up to £10 million. He said, “We help businesses grow, but we also help businesses to survive as well.” The company’s lending book reached a record £210 million at the end of February, with arrears falling to 5% from 6% a year earlier. Rimmer noted this progress came despite challenging market conditions and was achieved without compromising credit quality. Margins have also increased, with profit margins now at 40%. This was attributed to tight cost control and improved efficiency, including leveraging technology and streamlining internal processes. Time Finance has not increased its headcount significantly post-COVID, which has helped support margin growth. Rimmer also addressed the broader economic environment, pointing to interest rate pressures, inflation, and increased insolvencies, but emphasised that small businesses remain resilient. The company sees opportunity as traditional banks become more risk-averse, creating space for independent lenders. Visit Proactive’s YouTube channel for more interviews like this.

Zinnwald Lithium wins Saxony government endorsement for lithium project after robust PFS

Zinnwald Lithium PLC (LSE:ZNWD, OTC:ZNWLF) chief executive Anton du Plessis talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s recently published pre-feasibility study (PFS) for its Zinnwald Lithium Project, located in Saxony, Germany. The project is designed to supply battery-grade lithium hydroxide to the European market and has now received public backing from the Saxony government. Du Plessis outlined that the PFS demonstrates a scalable, long-life mining operation, starting with 18,000 tonnes per annum of lithium hydroxide and potentially scaling to 35,000 tonnes in a second phase. He stated, “We published our PFS on Monday that showed an economic project of significant scale… a globally significant project in terms of scale.” The economics were highlighted as robust, with a post-tax NPV of €2.20 billion and an internal rate of return of approximately 20%. The location of the project — 35km south of Dresden — positions it strategically at the heart of Germany and the EU, aligning with Europe’s push for regional supply chains of critical raw materials. Du Plessis also emphasised the importance of the local endorsement, noting, “To have the public endorsement, as we had, is extremely important to us.” The next step for the company is to optimise the project in preparation for a Definitive Feasibility Study, expected in 2026.
