I officially changed the name of our company today from Oregon Cryonics to Oregon Brain Preservation. Time to move on from that legacy. I didn't realize that it was so easy to change a company name. The State of Oregon considers it to still be the same company, with all of the history intact. We're about to celebrate our 20th Anniversary.
We've hired a few more people and even more are planned. So we have now reached the point where we are actively trying to attract customers. Our website is being professionally and regularly maintained. The final fourth phase of construction will be complete in about 8 months. We'll be putting some effort into signing people up for membership. Not sure quite what that will look like yet.

Re: Company name change
We've change the company name yet again to Sparks Brain Preservation. Since we decided to aggressively expand beyond Oregon, we found that the Oregon name was holding us back. Someone in SF would claim that we couldn't get to them fast enough even if we had a vehicle and staff in SF because they couldn't get past "Oregon" name. We explored many different options over the course of months. Apex Brain Preservation was the top contender for a while. We finally decided on Sparks Brain Preservation because it sounds cooler than Apex and because it formalizes my investment legacy. I think my name is already well known and I'm currently the only source of revenue, so the name is appropriate. By expanding our operations, we hope to attract the attention of wealthy patrons to diversify the revenue stream. This has already proven to be a good strategy in cryonics in multiple instances, with millions pouring in based on the perception of competency and professionalism. Having our home base near SF and Seattle gives us a natural advantage in those markets, but "Oregon" is a hard sell in both cases.
