[{"type":"text","content":"\n Moody & Associates\nMichelle Moody, +1-214-363-3460\[email protected]\n Next week, at Nanotech Northern Europe in Copenhagen, Anthony Kongats, CEO for\nAustralia-based CAP-XX Ltd. (LSE:CPX), will share lessons learned while\ndeveloping his company's nano-structured supercapacitors from government\nlaboratory to today's deployment in space-constrained electronics devices\nworldwide.\n\nWHO:\n\nAnthony Kongats founded CAP-XX in 1997 to commercialise the supercapacitor\ntechnology spawned by joint research done at the Australian government's premier\nscience and research organization - CSIRO - and Kongats' own electronics\ncompany, Energy Storage Systems.\n\nWHAT:\n\nKongats will share his commercialisation challenges and his perspective on the\nglobal investment environment for nanotechnology. CAP-XX is the only\npublicly-listed nanotechnology company being profiled.\n\nCAP-XX chose the Alternative Investment Markets (AIM) in London which had\nsupported similar internationally-focused technology companies and other\nnanotechnology start-ups such as Oxonica.\n\nKongats will discuss start-up challenges such as attracting venture funding,\nreadying a technology for production, building a patent portfolio, selling a new\nconcept into a new market, preparing for a public offering and ramping\nmanufacturing capacity to meet demand.\n\nWHERE:\n\nNanotech Northern Europe, Europe's annual nanotechnology conference organised by\nSpinverse, Copenhagen, Denmark, 23 - 25 September:\nhttp://www.nanotech.net/content/conference\n\nWHEN:\n\nThursday, 25 September, 11:30 am, Kongats will present during the 'Analyst\nPerspectives' section of 'Investing in nanotechnology,' a full-day session on\nthe business and investment potential of nanotechnology.\n\nAbout CAP-XX:\n\nThe CAP-XX nano-structured carbon supercapacitors store energy in tiny cells,\nthen release large bursts of power when needed. For example, mobile phones use\nsupercapacitors to deliver brighter flashes and richer-sounding music, vibration\nenergy-harvesters use them to power data transmission bursts in battery-free\ncondition monitoring systems, and solid state disks (SSDs) rely on them for\nbackup power.\n\nCAP-XX has sold more than 3 million supercapacitors, enabling smaller, thinner,\nlonger-running and more feature-rich space-constrained electronic devices such\n...
