I reckon imec have said you've got this great product, here are some no options on how you can use us to get it further down the road and further impress some possible acquirers...

Here's what we think your potential is (consider this as market insights)

none of those conversations themselves warrants a market disclosure

what would warrant a market disclosure (and has in the past) is an "imec collaboration update" once they've agreed scope, terms, costs etc. And they actually sign an agreement with imec.

could be a trading halt once that imec proposal is in 4DS hands (and market release written once they execute)

the TH is to protect from leakage from the company - can't leak if they don't have the info yet.

i was kinda hoping imec would have had a proposal on the table for them when DM walked in - but maybe they need a bit of time to refine now they've had the chats (which makes more sense)...
