An RT-PCR assay is a viral molecular test to detect active infection directly in a patient’s RNA genetic sequence. An RT-PCR swab test is considered the gold-standard for testing & diagnosing active viral infections and should be used for anyone who has symptoms or known exposure to COVID-19. These tests are renowned for high sensitivity and high specificity.

(CLIA) The Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments regulate laboratory testing and require clinical laboratories to be certified by the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) before they can accept human samples for diagnostic testing.

$HPQ.ca Silicon Confirms Closing of $2.7M Private Placement at 50% Premium to Market $DUK $XEL $NEE $PYR.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 2:46 PM on Wednesday, September 9th, 2020
  • On target to produce strongly sought-after nano silicon powders and nanowires for delivery and testing to battery industry parties in December
  • Company also confirms the September 3, 2020 closing of the $2,700,000 at $0.60, non-brokered private placement, announced on September 1, 2020
  • Now well funded to push forward on our nano silicon initiatives for the battery sector and others renewable energy applications, from which HPQ has currently announced two (2) NDA’s (Non-Disclosure Agreements)

MONTREAL, Sept. 09, 2020 — HPQ Silicon Resources Inc. (“HPQ” or “the Company”) TSX-V: HPQ; FWB: UGE; Other OTC : URAGF; is issuing this press release in response to recent market activity.  HPQ does not usually comment on stock price and trading activity, however, given recent activity and inquiries from investors, the Company would like to confirm that everything material about the Company’s operations has been disclosed and that HPQ is on target to produce our strongly sought-after nano silicon powders and nanowires for delivery and testing to battery industry parties in December.

The Company also confirms the September 3, 2020 closing of the $2,700,000 at $0.60, non-brokered private placement, announced on September 1, 2020.  As a result of this financing, HPQ has never been as well funded to push forward on our nano silicon initiatives for the battery sector and others renewable energy applications, from which HPQ has currently announced two (2) NDA’s (Non-Disclosure Agreements).

“HPQ PUREVAPTM Quartz Reduction Reactor (QRR) and HPQ NANO PUREVAPTM Nano Silicon Reactor (NSiR) processes are unique processes that will allow us to deliver to advanced materials companies and battery manufacturers a cost competitive, tailor-made product, that can replace graphite in batteries and thereby allow the deployment of truly powerful next generation Li-ion batteries,” said Bernard Tourillon, President & CEO of HPQ Silicon.  “These processes open up unique multibillion-dollar business opportunity for HPQ and PyroGenesis, as we strive to deliver the critical Silicon nano-materials required by the surging Li-ion battery market and other large renewable energy markets.”

INTEREST IN PUREVAPTM NSiR GAME CHANGING LOW COST POTENTIAL

Research indicates that replacing graphite with Nano Silicon (Si) Powders could allow the manufacturing of high-performance Li-ion batteries to deliver an almost tenfold (10x) increase in anode capacity, inducing a 20-40% gain in the energy density of the next generation of Li-Ion batteries. Silicon Nanomaterial potential to meet energy storage demand of the future is undeniable and is generating massive investments.

Despite the strong research and investment in Silicon nanomaterial, current manufacturing processes to make Nano Silicon powders are not scalable or commercially viable. By December of this year, HPQ will be on the starting blocks of demonstrating a process that can address both the scalability and cost hurdles required by the industry. 

About Silicon

Silicon (Si), also known as silicon metal, is one of today’s strategic materials needed to fulfil the Renewable Energy Revolution (“RER”) presently under way.  Silicon does not exist in its pure state; it must be extracted from quartz (SiO2), in what has historically been a capital and energy intensive process.

About HPQ Silicon

HPQ Silicon Resources Inc. (TSX-V: HPQ) is a Canadian producer of Innovative Silicon Solutions, based in Montreal,  building a portfolio of unique high value specialty silicon products needed for the coming RER.

Working with PyroGenesis Canada Inc. (TSX-V: PYR), a high-tech company that designs, develops, manufactures and commercializes plasma – based processes, HPQ is developing:

  • The PUREVAPTM “Quartz Reduction Reactors” (QRR), an innovative process (patent pending), which will permit the one step transformation of quartz (SiO2) into high purity silicon (Si) at reduced costs, energy input, and carbon footprint that will propagate its considerable renewable energy potential;
             º  HPQ believes it will become the lowest cost (Capex and Opex) producer of silicon (Si) and high purity silicon metal (3N – 4N Si);
  • The PUREVAPTM Nano Silicon Reactor (NSiR), a new proprietary process that can use different purities of silicon (Si) as feedstock, to make spherical silicon nanopowders and nanowires;
         º  HPQ believes it can also become the lowest cost manufacturer of spherical Si nanopowders and silicon-based composites needed by manufacturers of next-generation lithium-ion batteries;
             º  During the coming months, spherical Si nanopowders and nanowires silicon-based composite samples requested by industry participants and research institutions’ will be produced using PUREVAPTM SiNR.

HPQ is also working with industry leader Apollon Solar of France to:

  • Use their patented process and develop a capability to produce commercially porous silicon (Si) wafers and porous silicon (Si) powders;
         º  The collaboration will allow HPQ to become the lowest cost producer of porous silicon wafers for all-solid -state batteries and porous silicon powders for Li-ion batteries.
         º  The plan is to deliver porous Si wafer to a battery manufacturer (under NDA) for testing in 2020.

This News Release is available on the company’s CEO Verified Discussion Forum, a moderated social media platform that enables civilized discussion and Q&A between Management and Shareholders. 

Disclaimers:

The Corporation’s interest in developing the PUREVAP™ QRR and any projected capital or operating cost savings associated with its development should not be construed as being related to the establishing the economic viability or technical feasibility of any of the Company’s Quartz Projects.

Beckham’s Guild to kick off London IPO as esports flourish

  • David Beckham’s Guild Esports plans to list in London this year, making the former England soccer captain’s esports enterprise the first to go public in Britain.
  • Guild, which owns and develops esports teams, intends to raise 20 million pounds ($26 million) by listing around 40% of its shares, giving it a valuation of 50 million pounds, a person with knowledge of the matter told Reuters on Wednesday.

By Clara Denina and Tanishaa Nadkar

(Reuters) – David Beckham’s Guild Esports plans to list in London this year, making the former England soccer captain’s esports enterprise the first to go public in Britain.

Guild, which owns and develops esports teams, intends to raise 20 million pounds ($26 million) by listing around 40% of its shares, giving it a valuation of 50 million pounds, a person with knowledge of the matter told Reuters on Wednesday.

Beckham was the founding shareholder of Guild, which said in a statement that that some esport tournaments were attracting a bigger audience than the Wimbledon tennis championship, cycling’s Tour de France and golf’s U.S. Open.

Globally the esports market generated $951 million in revenues in 2019 and 443 million viewers, games and esports analytics firm Newzoo estimates.

Guild is banking on the global influence and following of the former soccer star turned sports business entrepreneur to support its business.

Beckham has an undisclosed significant but minority stake in Guild and is expected to remain a shareholder in the London-based company, which said proceeds from the share placing will be used to recruit new players and invest in its brand.

Guild initially plans to build a coaching academy for teams of four esports disciplines including Rocket League, EA Sports’ FIFA and Fortnite.

It aims to have 20 players by the end of 2021 across its game formats. For now, it has one FIFA player and three Rocket League players.

Online gaming has skyrocketed during global coronavirus lockdowns, which halted live sports events.

The coronavirus crisis has also hit European listings, with volumes at their lowest in eight years in the first half of 2020 as the COVID-19 pandemic doused investor sentiment.

Although there has since been a revival in new listings, this has mostly been in the United States and Asia.

The Hut Group, an online retailer of beauty and nutrition products, is expected to debut on the London public market in September, potentially the biggest IPO of a British company since 2013.

McBookie Ltd sees Increase of 412% Year-over-Year on Gross Gaming Revenue

  • Scottish based operator increased its overall year-over-year turnover for the months of July and August by 108% – from $3M CAD to $6.3M CAD, with 78% of the turnover growth led by the return of sport
  • Increase resulted in a YOY increase in Gross Gaming Revenue over the same period of 412%, resulting in gross gaming revenue of $371K for July and August 2020 and a gross margin of $161K
  • During the same period last year the platform generated $72K in gross gaming revenue resulting in a gross margin loss of $66K

Vancouver, British Columbia and Dundee, Scotland–(September 9, 2020) – FansUnite Entertainment Inc. (CSE: FANS) (OTC Pink: FUNFF), (“FansUnite” or the “Company”), a technology company providing leading online gaming solutions is pleased to announce McBookie Ltd (“McBookie”) has continued its impressive performance since becoming part of FansUnite.

The Scottish based operator increased its overall year-over-year (“YOY”) turnover for the months of July and August by 108% – from $3M CAD to $6.3M CAD, with 78% of the turnover growth led by the return of sport.

The increase resulted in a YOY increase in Gross Gaming Revenue over the same period of 412%, resulting in gross gaming revenue of $371K for July and August 2020 and a gross margin of $161K. During the same period last year the platform generated $72K in gross gaming revenue resulting in a gross margin loss of $66K.

With the strong results over the last two months, McBookie is preparing to continue the positive trend with the return of the English Premier League and the other major European leagues in the coming weeks.

“We are very pleased that McBookie has been able to continue its strong 2020 performance despite the slowdown in sports betting from the global pandemic,” said Scott Burton, CEO of FansUnite. “The figures for the past 60 days have been exceptional and continue to validate our belief in this leading B2C betting brand and the management team behind it. For the duration of 2020, major European leagues are set to begin again and present a great opportunity for McBookie to capture the attention of new and existing customers. We will work directly with McBookie in ensuring their presence in the U.K. expands and they are in a position to service this growing user base of bettors.”

“The team at FansUnite has worked very hard to improve all aspects of our business since joining FansUnite and it is great to see that replicated in the numbers,” said Paul Petrie, founder and Director of McBookie. “With just one month to wait until the whole of Scottish football is back, having the resources and expertise of FansUnite helps puts us in an excellent position to continue building on our recent success.”

While the return of sport has provided an uptick in betting volume, casino turnover during the two-month period was strong as well with $3.1M wagered. McBookie will be looking to build on these numbers with the recent launch of a Live Casino product earlier this month.

“After launching a successful Virtual Sports betting offering in March, we decided to expand our platform with the addition of a Live Casino,” continued Paul Petrie. “It represents another betting alternative for our loyal customers and helps us diversify our revenue stream.”

  • Announced partnership with celebrity author, podcast host and parenting expert, Hilaria Baldwin
  • Baldwin has joined Else Nutrition as part of its U.S. launch marketing efforts around its Complete Toddler Nutrition

VANCOUVER, BC / September 9, 2020 / Else Nutrition Holdings (TSXV:BABY)(OTCQX:BABYF)(FSE:0YL) (“Else” or the “Company”), is pleased to announce its partnership with celebrity author, podcast host and parenting expert, Hilaria Baldwin. Baldwin has joined Else Nutrition as part of its U.S. launch marketing efforts around its Complete Toddler Nutrition.

As a mom who has always advocated a plant-based lifestyle, the collaboration originated from Hilaria’s own search for a suitable toddler formula alternative for her children. Baldwin will help Else through creative social media and video content that highlights her findings and journey as a plant-based mother.

“Hilaria embodies our brand values through her desire to take baby nutrition to the next level with a heightened awareness for health and wellness,” said Mrs. Hamutal Yitzhak, CEO and Co-Founder of Else. “She is a true champion of the cause, which makes us beyond excited about this collaboration. Together, we hope to raise awareness of the benefits of clean-label, plant-based baby nutrition for this generation and the future ones to come.”

“I am thrilled to be partnering with Else Nutrition. As many of you know, my family primarily eats a dairy-free, plant-based diet. I nurse my babies and am always looking for a plant-based toddler formula to transition to once they are weaned. There hasn’t been anything suitable except soy until now. Else is complete, whole Nutrition and my toddler Romeo genuinely loves it. It’s really the alternative that I had been looking for, and I believe that so many other parents like myself have been longing for it as well,” said Mrs. Hilaria Baldwin.

Most recently, Else made its debut on national U.S. television. Baldwin appeared on E!’s popular midday show, Daily Pop, where she explained why Else is her choice for her toddler, Romeo. Else Nutrition’s Plant-Based Complete Nutrition for Toddlers & Babies (12+ mo.) is available for order on Else’s e-store at elsenutrition.com.
