About Nano One:
Nano One Materials Corp ("Nano One" or "the Company") is developing patented technology for the low-cost production of
high-performance battery materials used in electric vehicles, energy storage, consumer electronics and next generation batteries.
The processing technology addresses fundamental supply chain constraints by enabling wider raw materials specifications for
use in lithium ion batteries. The process can be configured for a range of different nanostructured materials and has the
flexibility to shift with emerging and future battery market trends and a diverse range of other growth opportunities. The novel
three-stage process uses equipment common to industry and Nano One has built a pilot plant to demonstrate high volume production,
provide larger volumes of material for third party testing and has preliminary engineering plans in place for full scale production
of a range of cathode materials. This pilot plant program is being funded with the assistance and support of the Government of
Canada through Sustainable Development Technology Canada (SDTC) and the Automotive Supplier Innovation Program (ASIP) a program of
Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED). Nano One also receives financial support from the National Research
Council of Canada Industrial Research Assistance Program (NRC-IRAP). Nano One's mission is to establish its patented technology as
a leading platform for the global production of a new generation of nanostructured composite materials. For more information,
