Dotz Nano Limited is pleased to announce it has entered into a strategic funding agreement with Mercer Street Global Opportunity Fund, LLC (Mercer), a prominent US-based investment fund, to raise up to A$12 million via issuance of convertible notes. The infusion of funds will play a pivotal role in expediting the development and commercialization of DOTZearth, the company's cutting-edge carbon capture technology.
Dotz CEO, Sharon Malka, expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration, stating, "We are excited to partner with Mercer in this important phase of the Company’s evolution and delighted that an investment fund of its caliber has backed our technology and its potential." He added, "The placement provides the Company with the runway needed in the near-term so that it can execute on its growth opportunities and capitalize on the technology potential.”
