The GreenCentre Mission

  • Our mission is: Changing Chemistry, Changing The World
  • Specifically, we identify, develop and deploy “game-

changing” Green Chemistry innovations to advance the human condition

  • By human condition we are referring to:
  • human health
  • environmental sustainability
  • economic prosperity

ANALYSIS

Under a 90-day exclusive option, we conduct a thorough technological assessment GreenCentre’s industry partners provide input Analysis is shared with the institution Possible outcomes: return, proof-of- principle funding or in-licensing

slide-17
SLIDE 17

LICENSING

We will sign an exclusive license with the institution There are no upfront costs; we cover all development and IP costs going forward We return a large portion of all net licensing proceeds to the institution/ inventors Institution/inventors share in all licensing returns

DEVELOPMENT

GreenCentre makes the investments needed to close the market gap:

  • Process optimization
  • Field-test proof of utility
  • Scale-up of product candidates
  • Application development
  • Pre-commercial sales

GreenCentre will license the technology or create start-ups and start sending licensing revenue back to the inventors

Highlights To Date

  • In less than 5 years we have assembled a world-class

team, built a state-of-the-art facility, developed international networks and have become a globally recognized leader in Green Chemistry commercialization

  • We have executed 6 out-licenses, created 3 companies

and 80 direct jobs in Canada and have leveraged public investment dollar-for-dollar

  • Our ability to reduce technological and commercial risk

has re-kindled interest in Clean-tech investment

Communications and Marketing

  • Goal is to create an ecosystem where all participants in

commercialization process understand each other, the value of Green Chemistry and how to work together

  • Building strong stakeholder relationships requires effective

communication

  • Communication strategy also seeks to:
  • improve public understanding and perception of Green Chemistry;

and

  • improve resource allocation and policy frameworks to advance

Green Chemistry.

Switchable Water (SW)

  • CO2-switchable water-soluble

additive proving a reversible change in ionic strength of water

  • Part of GreenCentre’s Jessop

portfolio

  • Addition of CO2 converts additive

to a salt, increasing ionic strength

  • Removal of CO2 (by bubbling air),

reverts the additive to it’s non-ionic state

  • Potential Application Targets:
  • Desalination (osmosis)
  • Separating water-soluble organics
  • Switchable polyacrylamide surrogate:

  • flocculation
  • Biphasic catalyst recovery
  • Low foaming surfactants/emulsifier

slide-31
SLIDE 31

One of the greatest challenges facing humanity is abundant access to clean water for human consumption, agriculture and industry. Innovative technologies are needed to address this challenge

  • f the 21st century.

Forward Water Technologies aims to revolutionize the production of fresh water by tapping into an abundant source of water, our

  • ceans.

GreenCenter USA

  • Last year, as part of our growth strategy, we created a US

subsidiary – GreenCenter USA (GCU)

  • Since that time, GCU has received its 501 c(3) designation,

has been working with US researchers and entrepreneurs and has been assembling a broad stakeholder group to support the expansion of the GreenCentre model into the US

  • We are at the beginning of this journey but progress is

being made
