Neo Performance’s Constantine Karayannopoulos on the growth opportunities for rare earths in the EV market

In a recent InvestorIntel interview, Tracy Weslosky spoke with Constantine Karayannopoulos, President, CEO and Director of Neo Performance Materials Inc. (TSX: NEO) about joining the UN Global Compact to promote sustainability and about the ‘massive’ growth opportunities in the rare earths space.

In this InvestorIntel interview, which may also be viewed on YouTube (click here to subscribe to the InvestorIntel Channel), Karayannopoulos highlighted the lack of sufficient supply of rare earths, lithium, and other critical materials required by the energy transition and electric vehicle (EV) revolution. In addition to being the only company in the world operating dual supply chains inside and outside of China for rare earths and rare earth based advanced materials, Neo also owns the only operating commercial rare earth separation facility in Europe, which allows it to have a significant footprint in the fast-growing European EV market. With its presence in 10 countries, Constantine explained that Neo Performance is well-positioned to capture growth in the electric vehicle supply chain in Europe and eventually in North America.
