I had the pleasure and opportunity to present on a panel during the Indigenous Led Projects Forum. As a partner and co-owner in @carbonixinc we are always faced with the challenges of maintaining a majority ownership as prescribed by Government. I’ve come to the conclusion that if I’m an indigenous owner of an indigenous company, then it will always be an indigenous company. No one can take that away. Here is a brief outline of my panel presentation: - Carbonix is an Advanced Materials for a Sustainable Future - Marries modern technology with Indigenous traditions - Promotes environmental care and economic objectives - Specializes in sustainable products for resource extraction and energy transition - Adsorbents and flocculants for mining and oil sands - Carbon coatings and battery-grade graphites for transportation, energy storage, and EV sectors - Carbonix proprietary carbon scaffold platform - Turns high-carbon content waste into valuable products - Emphasizes cost-efficiency and environmental sustainability - Combined, products address USD >$200B markets - Carbonix is committed to protecting its innovations through ongoing patent applications - Ensures a competitive edge while contributing to technological leadership and environmental responsibility - Efforts underscore a holistic approach to sustainability in the materials sector - Fosters a sustainable, equitable future #indigenousbusiness #carbonproducts #activatedcarbon #environment #indigneous
