As we are scaling our YXY technology for commercial-scale production of FDCA and PEF (releaf® by avantium), it is critical to ensure that the company is adequately financed. I am proud that we have further strengthened our financial position by securing EUR 46 million, in the form of debt and equity. Thank you to the Avantium team that accomplished this milestone and managing the complexities of this financing package: Boudewijn van Schaïk, carmen portocarero, Caspar Wijdeveld, Guido Klaus, Caroline van Reedt Dortland, Aarne Luten, Sophia Gijsbertsen and Karel Karis. Hercules job and great team effort!
I would also like to thank Pieter Kooi, who continues to support us on our journey to commercial success, as well as the Dutch banks, ABN AMRO Bank N.V., ASN Bank, ING, Rabobank, Invest-NL and the Provincie Groningen, and new and existing investors, including Edwin Wierda.
Advisors that supported us include: ABN AMRO Bank N.V., Bryan, Garnier & Co, A&O Shearman Netherlands, Clifford Chance Amsterdam, Norton Rose Fulbright
The focus is now on getting our FDCA Flagship Plant in Delfzijl on stream, work towards shipping the first commercial volumes of FDCA and PEF to customers and building our licensing business.
The future of plastics is above the ground!
