Getting back together in real life was a game-changer for us. It’s not just the energy, catching up with old friends, and feeling the energy of the business, but it’s really needed.

Sometimes a very unique set of individuals see the potential in technology long before it gets popular among a community. This group is sometimes referred to as the “innovators” the risk takers! If it’s not popular and there isn’t a clear path forward on how it’s going to work out economically, rarely the technology is invested in… KinFrac is a revolutionary fracking technology that is at the very beginning for the oil and gas industry with the potential to help all resource exploration industries and even the medical field. We are on this journey of investing with any other innovators and investors that are ready to commit to the growth of incredible technology and a game-changer for the hydrocarbon extraction industry! Much, MUCH more to come on this!
