1/ Breaking News🚨56-PAGE FOIA DOCUMENT:
In the next few posts, I will be sharing and unpacking a 56-page document released under FOIA
- It includes SEC’s own emails (by Washington senior policymakers directly under Gensler - NOT enforcement), strategic coordination with Congress BEFORE enforcement actions, timelines, and narrative control around Meta Materials Inc. and $MMTLP.

I encourage everyone and particularly the media, to look into the context of these emails, the names involved, timelines etc. Public debate is the cornerstone of democracy and your protected 1st Amendment right.

Who in the SEC knew? And when?
Did the SEC pre-brief a U.S. Senator about the MMTLP case, before any enforcement?

Emails now confirm that MMTLP was on Commissioner Uyeda's office's "hot-topic" list, tied to my former company (@Metamaterialtec) and the infamous @FINRA U3 halt.

Taylor Asher is the Policy Advisor & Confidential Assistant to Commissioner Mark Uyeda. This isn’t just some intern. Taylor Asher advises an SEC Commissioner. In July 2023, she flagged #MMTLP as a "hot topic" before a Senator meeting. Who else knew?

I’m sharing this document so that the public and retail investors understand how intertwined these issues have become. This is not about MMAT/MMTLP. This is about accountability.Extract from Page 50 - Download: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/2i9i57je5qxkhwkmjucqd/2021-12-24-143943053_Redacted.pdf?rlkey=m4ggmzrfy41hnzm13akbswia5&st=6roudqgv&dl=0

I get asked by young #entrepreneurs what is the cost and the output of R&D activities and how long would it take to reach certain milestones? There is considerable variability in the amount of investment in R&D needed to generate a patentable #invention 1/7 🦋 When we started @Metamaterialtec with @timaras we found that #IBM spent about $6 billion on R&D in 2011 and generated 6,146 patents, implying an average R&D cost per patent of $976,000. At same year #Qualcomm, spent $2.3 billion on R&D and generated 1,000 patents, 2/7 🦋
