HydroGraph Welcomes United States Senator for Kansas Jerry Moran at its Graphene Production Facility
MANHATTAN, Kan., Aug. 07, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — HydroGraph Clean Power Inc. (CSE: HG) (OTCQB: HGCPF) (FRA: M98) (the “Company” or “HydroGraph”), a sustainable commercial manufacturer of pristine graphene, received a visit by Jerry Moran, the senior senator for the State of Kansas.
Sen. Moran was joined by the Manhattan Area Chamber of Commerce and hosted by HydroGraph’s president and interim CEO, Kjirstin Breure.
