Today, shortly before the opening bell, VIASPACE announced that its CEO, Dr. Carl Kukkonen, will make an invited presentation at the 2013 Energy, Utility, and Environment Conference (EUEC) in Phoenix, Arizona, on Tuesday, January 29, 2013.
Dr. Kukkonen's presentation on Giant King Grass (GKG) and its energy crop applications will be delivered at 3:30PM in the Phoenix Convention Center North. VIASPACE is also an exhibiting company and will be displaying its proprietary, 17 feet tall GKG live at booth #734 in the exhibition hall.
The USA's largest, longest-running, professional networking and educational event of its kind, EUEC will be hosting its 16th annual conference this year. Environmental business leaders, energy executives, and government policy makers give presentations and discuss various issues in a 12-track program. The EUEC motivates clean renewable and alternate energy solutions to secure energy independence from foreign oil, while protecting the environment. More than 600 presentations are made by experts during the conference covering diverse topics of clean air policy, legislation and green technologies, energy and climate policy, wind power, solar power, carbon markets, corporate greenhouse gas strategies, biofuels, biomass, biogas, and renewable energy management.
Dr. Carl Kukkonen stated, "Not only will my invited presentation focus on the economic and environmental benefits of using Giant King Grass as a dedicated energy crop in the Southern United States, Puerto Rico and Hawaii, we will for the first time be displaying live, mature Giant King Grass in our exhibition booth. Potential customers, conference attendees, investors and other interested parties will be able to see GKG firsthand. Giant King Grass is an impressive bioenergy product when seen and experienced in person. I am also pleased to announce that our Chairman, Dr. Schewe, will be attending the conference with me and will assist in meeting with various clients, interested parties, investors and will participate with me in our Q & A session on Monday evening."
"Last year at EUEC2012, 2,037 delegates attended this conference and this year the U.S. Department of Energy is a Silver Level Exhibitor," VIASPACE Chairman Dr. Kevin Schewe added. "Dr. Kukkonen is speaking in the 'Cofiring in Power Plants' track and we will have live, mature Giant King Grass in our exhibition booth along with samples of GKG pellets to show prospective clients and partners. With GKG recently being granted USDA approval in the U.S., we will use this opportunity to effectively network and expand our Company name recognition and presence in the U.S. marketplace. We have been very busy at the end of 2012 harvesting and shipping GKG seedlings from our California site and look forward to soon announcing the new locations and projects that we are actively pursuing."
VIASPACE told investors that it has 10 free passes for guests who wish to visit the company's booth during the Monday evening reception from 4:00 to 7:00PM. Dr. Kukkonen and Dr. Schewe will be available for questions. Interested parties should email Jaclyn Kenner at kenner@viaspace.com. Those who want to attend the entire day (either January 28 or January 29, 2013) can purchase a pro-rated ticket for $395 in advance or at the convention. Ms. Kenner will be coordinating activities at the exhibit booth and keep investors informed via Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn during the conference.
