G6 Materials Corp. has appointed Kevin Cornish, MBA, CPA, CPHR, as its new chief financial officer and chief operating officer effective May 29, 2023, subject to the final acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange. Mr. Cornish is a chartered professional accountant, among other designations, with over 17 years of experience, who has served as an officer of both private and publicly traded companies in the Canadian capital markets. G6's former CFO, Rob Scott, amicably agreed to depart the company on May 26, 2023, in order to facilitate the transition.

Mr. Cornish is a well-rounded business leader who has worked on multiple start-ups and turnarounds in both Canada and the United States. He prides himself on having overcome corporate challenges and obstacles in numerous industries and markets. Mr. Cornish's knowledge of international business practices and strategy implementation, paired with his ability to adapt and scale quickly, make him a strong fit for the company. He holds an MBA from Saint Mary's University in Halifax, where he also earned his CPA designation. With a skill set that is also complemented by a CPHR (chartered professional in human resources) designation, Mr. Cornish incorporates many facets of business to maximize his overall value to an enterprise.

Changes to the board of directors

G6 also announces that Anastasios (Taso) Arima has resigned from its board of directors effective on May 31, 2023. The company's management team and fellow directors would like to thank Mr. Arima for his guidance since his appointment to the board in mid-2021. Accordingly, the company has appointed Guy Bourgeois as the new independent member of the board of directors, effective May 29, 2023.

Mr. Bourgeois has extensive knowledge in the advanced materials, energy generation, graphite and nanotechnology industries, most notably including graphene while involved with Elcora Advanced Materials. He has served as an owner, investor, adviser or board member in dozens of cutting-edge businesses over the past 30 years. Mr. Bourgeois is skilled in raising capital, obtaining government grants, expanding global business development and creating smart business strategies. He is a seasoned professional with decades of broad expertise centred around commercial growth and innovative/disruptive technological developments.

Director of communications

The company is pleased to announce that Luca Garbero has been appointed as its director of communications. Based in New York as a public relations and event planning professional, Mr. Garbero has cultivated a network of strategic relationships in the fashion industry, including having collaborated with Gucci, Versace and Armani, among others. He is passionate about the development of smart textiles and incorporating technology into the fashion industry.

He is also a movie producer and actor who is best known for Club Life (2015), The Abandoned (2015), Middleground (2017) and Sex Guaranteed (2017). As director of communications, Mr. Garbero has agreed to assist the company with its external messaging, stakeholder targeting and other outreach initiatives.

Chief technology officer

The title of chief technology officer has formally been added to Dr. Daniel Stolyarov's role as president and co-chief executive officer of G6. As president, CTO and co-CEO of the company, the expanded title is intended to convey Dr. Stolyarov's heightened focus on the development of the company's intellectual property as well as the graphene-based enhancement of current technologies for commercial use.

Management commentary

"Thanks to Rob Scott for his contributions to the company as CFO since 2016. He played an instrumental role in many facets of G6's evolution and I wish him well in his future endeavours. I would also like to appreciate Taso Arima for his role as an independent director on G6's board over the last two years," said Dr. Stolyarov, president, CTO and co-CEO of G6.
