What is ElectraMet Planning in Right to Work Kentucky?

ElectraMet will soon be relocating to Right to Work Lexington, Kentucky. This move will also include expanding its operations. In order to accomplish all of this, the company is investing a total of $6 million toward the project. So this will be a great economic addition to the area.

From Area Development Magazine:

“Our growth as a company from angel investment from the Bluegrass Angels in Lexington to a full-fledged water treatment provider has been tremendous. […] We have appreciated all the support from the community, the University of Kentucky and the State of Kentucky.†[…]

“ElectraMet shows the power of taking an idea and turning it into a reality that is making a positive impact on our state and local communities. […] As a previous SBIR/STTR Matching Funds awardee, this company’s success is a testament to how Kentucky’s resources for supporting technology development in the state can be used.†[…]

“ElectraMet is a perfect example of how the local research community can nurture entrepreneurs and help develop great ideas into successful start-ups through innovative solutions that improve something specific for business and industry. […] Congratulations to Drs. Lippert and Landon on this expansion. Thank you to those at the Center for Applied Energy Research, which supported and encouraged them along the way.â€
