Speaker 1: Thank you everyone for joining and welcome to the Ceylon Graphite Live Summit today hosted by 6. I'm pleased to introduce the speakers for today, Sasha Jacobs, CEO of Ceylon Graphite Speaker 1: and Dr. Benji Fenik-Salerno, Speaker 1: PhD researcher at Imperial College London. We will be expecting Felice Torriso, Speaker 1: also a lecturer Speaker 1: at the Imperial College of London. He should be joining us any minute now, but Speaker 1: Sasha will introduce the 2 individuals and we will discuss their graphic, Speaker 1: graphite and sensor research. Speaker 1: And after that we will be accepting questions. So as a reminder, you can submit questions in the bottom right hand side of the chat at any point during the presentation. Speaker 1: As always, this summit is being recorded and will be available on Six.com in the coming days, so look out for that. I'll hand it over to you, Sach, Speaker 1: to get things started, Bill. Speaker 2: Great, great, thank you, Kyle. Speaker 2: So I'm not going to speak too much today. I will leave it to the experts, Speaker 2: Benji and Felice. Speaker 2: As most of you know, we are a company that's not just focused on mining, we also have an incredible technical Speaker 2: division Speaker 2: based out of England Speaker 2: and that is led by Dr. Sivabom and Dr. Malikabom, both are world-leading Speaker 2: graphite experts. Speaker 2: Previously Speaker 2: CTO at, you know, arguably 1 of the leading Speaker 2: technical graphite companies that has a lot of products under development and IP and patents. And we similarly, Speaker 2: as you may have seen, have filed several patents already and are continuously Speaker 2: doing work on the technical side led by Siva and Malika. Speaker 2: And Siva was also a fellow at Imperial ...
