“We are very pleased and grateful that BGA Invest and Midroc New Technology once again show their confidence in Minesto and the commercial value of our technology and project portfolio. They have been the backbone of Minesto’s ownership structure for many years, and with this additional capital the conditions for a continued successful commercialisation journey are even stronger”, says Dr Martin Edlund, CEO of Minesto.
