2028-29Bayer Iodine Production Project
Exclusive rights to negotiate potential long-term offtake agreement, subject to successful FEL-3 feasibility completion and negotiation of definitive terms.
2030Voyageur Iodine Contrast Drug Production
First vertically integrated domestic iodine producer in a 100% import-dependent category.4
2030+Global Barium and Iodine Contrast Market Disruption
Domestic supply, management-expected significant cost advantage and FDA approval to disrupt the current industry oligopoly.
Proven Innovation, Capital Markets Ready
“Capital is selective right now, and it should be. What got my attention with Voyageur is commercial revenue today, Bayer funding the iodine feasibility study, and a firm like Fluor doing the engineering, which is not a typical profile for a company this size. I joined the board because the business has de-risked well ahead of where the valuation sits, and with a cost structure that would be very difficult to match for any synthetic producer in a market this large, it has a credible path to leading the space rather than chasing it.”

“From my decades-long experience as a risk manager, I see that the best-run organizations are those that manage reward and risk intentionally and thoughtfully to achieve valuable strategic objectives. Voyageur’s well-constructed project timelines and their sharp focus on internal and external validation of key processes reflect Voyageur’s risk-aware culture and commitment to resilient and sustainable product development and execution.“

4Several companies manufacture finished iodinated contrast media products in the United States through fill-and-finish operations. These companies import the active pharmaceutical ingredients rather than synthesizing them domestically. At present, there is no commercial-scale manufacturing in the U.S. that starts from iodine flake and produces the iodinated contrast APIs.
