Yes, I asked questions about USA, barriers, Taiwan and strategy moving forward. At least Tom addressed them. Overall, must say disappointed in lack of momentum and planning within USA as @jamesc666 as stated. The main message was don't expect any large contracts within the USA any time soon.

He openly acknowledged that the FLC brand and product offering are not well known within the USA industry. On the upside interest is increasing in the technology. Assume because of drought and infrastructure funds coming.

Tom commented on the on time-frames to incorporate product within procurement and design process will take time in the USA from 6 months to 2 years within USA. He commented the commercial and industrial processes are much shorter compared to government. This is true through the western world though. Yeah, they are playing catch up.

Zero Covid is the biggest drag in China, but doubling their efforts in SE Asia with emphasis on Taiwan as a great opportunity due to regulations that chipping companies now need to re-use their water.

The Ivory Coast O/M contract cant be considered until the plant is completed mid/late next year, so at least 12-18 months for any news on winning that project.

Finally, interesting that they are not selling the Italian operation as they are seeing interest picking up regarding waste water and waste to energy.

Overall, it is what it is, Tom is trying to build up his sales force for catch up and the long haul in USA, China is locked in the bizarre zero Covid policy, meanwhile we seek other opportunities throughout the globe.

Funny nothing really of substance from Middle East.

Anyway that was my recollection.

IMO
