EXHIBITOR PROFILES

Dr. Stan Pankratz joined as co-founder of Summit View Development Crop in 2010 to assist companies with accessing benefits found within the Government of Canada’s Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&ED) program.

It was his assistance to another algae company that had developed an advanced cultivation system, that led him on a personal journey focused on algae’s potential to address the Province of Alberta and Canada’s climate change challenge.

Algae is our planet’s fastest growing plant and has CO2 as it’s key nutrient requirement. His PhD studies culminated in a report to the Alberta Government on the topic “Algae-based Biomass for the Production of Fuels and Chemicals” that may be found at Emissions Reduction Alberta (ERA).
