Planktos Inc. is still operating under that name and is in the process of changing fields and names.
SEC documents show that Russ George gave back his shares of Planktos Inc. and disassociated himself with the company. In exchange the company gave him the right, but the non-exclusive right, to use the company's proprietary science in iron-fertilization. He's also allowed to use the name Planktos.
George's new venture, Planktos Science, is a private company that is operating separately from Planktos Inc., which is the company with several years' history in this field. The article is about that existing company, not the new venture, and the two are not the same.
