The Coretec Group to Host a Shareholder Call on January 11 to Highlight 2023 Milestones and Endurion Update

ANN ARBOR, Mich., Dec. 20, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Coretec Group (OTCQB: CRTG), developers of silicon anode active materials for lithium–ion batteries, and cyclohexasilane (CHS) for EV, cleantech, and 3D display technology, today announced it will host a shareholder presentation and call at 10:00 a.m. EST on Thursday, January 11, 2024, to review the Company's 2023 achievements and the commercially positive results of its 2023 Endurion full cell battery program.

2023 has been a year of exciting developments for The Coretec Group’s Endurion battery program, CSpace display technology, and expansion of its corporate footprint. Some notable highlights to be discussed on the shareholder presentation and call will include:

  • The launch of the Company’s Endurion Partner Development Program, a commercial initiative that aims to solicit stakeholders up and down the battery and energy storage value chain(s) to participate in the development of the Company’s proprietary silicon anode battery materials technology.
  • The continued successes in Endurion battery include full cell development and commercially favorable results.
  • The Company filed a provisional patent for the development of proprietary artificial solid electrolyte interfaces (SEI) capable of extending the cycle life and increasing the technical capabilities of silicon–based anodes for lithium–ion batteries.
  • The research partnership between The Coretec Group and The University of Adelaide on the Company’s CSpace 3D volumetric display technology was selected for presentation at the 2024 SPIE Photonics West Conference on January 30, 2024.
  • Coretec leadership launched a new series of virtual expert panel discussions, where thought leaders from across the battery industry weighed in and discussed the biggest issues and most promising opportunities facing the battery industry, for the viewing benefit of fellow industry players and interested media figures.

“2023 was arguably the most important yet for Coretec, as we engaged with industry–leading potential customers and partners for 2024 about our Endurion program while making significant progress in the lab for our proprietary technology,” said Matthew Kappers, CEO of The Coretec Group. “In addition to the major milestones we reached, we also had team members liaise with fellow industry players, and visit other battery labs to learn and improve our innovation processes. This constant state of learning and improvement allowed us to make major progress on not just our Endurion program, but across the technologies in Coretec’s portfolio, notably our 3D display technology. We’re excited to discuss these updates along with what’s to come in 2024, maintaining our long–term commercialization goals that we believe will realize shareholder value.”

The Company will provide call access information via press release, our corporate and investor websites, and social media in advance of the shareholder call and presentation. Please follow on X (formerly Twitter) at @CoretecGroupInc or the Company’s LinkedIn page.
