Stages of progress of Europositron’s total project:
1. Acquisition of finance under negotiations with investors willing to invest at least 2.4 million Euros. When successful, a special issue of shares follows. Schedule: Negotiations are ongoing in year 2013, with completion as soon as possible (estimate 2017).
When the finance has been realized:
2. Construction of the prototypes and verification of functionality
according the tests accomplished by the personnel of the
company.
Estimated time of realization after the financing: max. 2 years
After successful results of the tests:
3. Patent applications in Finland are confirmed, and outlining of application patent protection for several inventions internationally begins.
4. The results of the tests are given to impartial laboratory
for verification.
5. Beginning of trade of the manufacturing licenses of battery
based on the invention.
