betterU $BTRU.ca Provides Business Update $ARCL $CPLA $BPI $FC.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 8:29 AM on Friday, August 21st, 2020
  • Launch of betterU’s Europe SaaS B2B platform
  • Relaunch of India SaaS platform as a result of 1,272% increase in transactions for 2020
  • Extraordinary $60,000+ profit from sale of certain claim rights

OTTAWA, ON / August 21, 2020 / betterU Education Corp. (TSXV:BTRU)(FRA:5OGA) (the “Company” or “betterU”) is pleased to provide the following update on its business.

2020 year-to-date the Company has seen a substantial increase in interest from companies and governments from North America, Europe, Africa as well as India. Over the last couple months, betterU has completed multiple proposals that if completed would result in the company’s profitability within 2020.

To effectively access some of the global opportunities, betterU has adapted its platform to support global markets and is now in the process of launching its European SaaS platform. The platform is expected to launch before the end of August 2020. As part of betterU’s growth strategy in Europe, the Company is also in the process of completing the set-up of its operating entity, located in Dublin (Ireland), that will support several initiatives including an opportunity for non-dilutive investment as well as several possible strategic partnerships.

betterU had also decided to advance its India marketplace after observing a significant 1,272% increase in registrations and transactions over the same period last year. Nearly 55,000 new users and 12,000 new transactions enrolled in both free and paid courses. While the revenues were only a few thousand dollars, the length of time users have been spending on the marketplace has validated the growing level of interest. To capitalized on this growth trend, the Company has recently launched their new retooled India platform that aligns with their new SaaS model and includes a reduction of content offered, focused exclusively on skills development.

The several thousand courses and assessments being provided in India will now be hosted exclusively by betterU and to drive more awareness, the company is going to launch a marketing campaign promoting their new platform targeting its over 129,000 Facebook followers from India. The Company has also simplified the user experience by centralizing the back-end infrastructure for content integration, user management and now any transactions or updates required to be made, would be completed by betterU Canada and instantly be applied to all global platforms. This will enable seamless skills development solutions for millions of learners globally and support the scalability the Company has been working to establish.

betterU’s focus on its current clients has been to ensure the effective development of the platform, the ability to scale through automation and has renegotiated many content partner agreements for inclusion in the Company’s new SaaS model. In addition, betterU has developed a translation platform to support content delivery in localized languages for global employees and has launched its customized development services.

betterU is planning to support upwards of over 2,000 client employees within Ready-To-Go in the coming months and to support these growing opportunities, the Company has been planning the addition of a national sales team focused on North America. The Company is expecting to roll out sales team by the end of August 2020.

On July 20th, 2020, betterU received a grant from Industrial Research Assistance Program in the amount of $32,524. Funds have been allocated to support Canadian employees. On July 31, 2020, betterU secured more than $62,000 in extraordinary profit through the sale of certain claim rights the Company inherited from a predecessor entity, which is unrelated to the business activities of betterU.

“2020 has turned out to be a promising year so far with the growth of excitement from our current clients as we advance our core products and the multitude of opportunities that continue to presence themselves. Our team has and continues to work exceptionally hard to advance corporate and government opportunities. The world has been forced to change due to COVID-19 and with remote learning, betterU will continue to advance our solutions to help support as many governments, companies, employees and students get access to quality, affordable, skills development programs. More updates will follow shortly”, said Brad Loiselle, CEO of betterU.

VIDEO: Loop Insights $MTRX.ca Pilot In 20 Locations Of Biggest CBD Retailer In America Could Lead To 550 Stores $QUIS.ca $MCLD.ca $NXO.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 5:08 PM on Thursday, August 20th, 2020
Loop Insights – Medium

Loop Insights (MTRX:TSXV) could very well be the best e-commerce technology company we’ve seen in the past 10 years.  We thought it when we saw it for the first time … and then the thinking really took hold when we showed Loop’s technology to retailer friends of ours, who jumped out of their phones.  

So what does Loop do? 

As their name suggests, they close the loop between brick and mortar locations and their e-commerce stores

But how do they do that?

Well, we know that all e-commerce sites have easy access to real-time insights, which leads to personal marketing.  That’s how:

  • Amazon recommends a product based on a real-time purchase you are making;
  • Spotify recommends music based on music you are listening to in real-time; 
  • NetFlix recommends other movies based on what you just watched.

What Loop is doing is creating that same experience for you in a physical retail location, which has NEVER been done.  Whether you are in a hotel, casino, store, or stadium, Loop’s disruptive capability creates a real-time increase in spend, loyalty, foot traffic and wallet share.   But don’t just take our word for it, here is what the largest brick & mortar CBD retailer in America had to say:  

“There’s no greater time to utilize top-tier artificial intelligence technology to gain an edge in this industry. Our customer base is huge, and it’s important to understand their needs and preferences to maximize basket size, loyalty and wallet share. We look forward to working with Loop and building unparalleled experiences for our customers.”

  If that wasn’t enough, here is what MTRX announced last month:  

Now you know why we’re calling Loop Insights the best e-commerce technology company we’ve seen in 10 years.

“In these extraordinary times, cannabis based pharma and cosmetic products respond to consumers’ desires for a more natural and healthy lifestyle. Innocan has a proven high-level expertise and shared vision making them an ideal partner for us to develop these new markets,” said Cloud 9’s Founder and Managing Director, Dr. Francis Scanlan.

Iris Bincovich, Innocan’s Founder and CEO, commented, “We are excited to have our products distributed in Switzerland and Italy. This is the second distribution agreement we have signed in Europe. I believe Cloud 9 will provide professional distribution of our SHIR and Relief & Go product lines.”

Additionally, on July 7, 2020, the Company has engaged AGORACOM for investor awareness, marketing and branding services (the “Services“) for a 12-month online marketing campaign to engage current shareholders and the broader investment community. As consideration for the Services, Innocan will pay to AGORACOM an aggregate of $75,000 (plus applicable taxes) by way of the issuance of common shares of the Company (the “Shares“), subject to regulatory and Canadian Securities Exchange approval. The Shares are payable in five equal installments during the period from August 2020 to July 2021, as further provided for in the online marketing agreement between the Company and AGORACOM.

George Tsiolis, AGORACOM’s Founder, stated, “With the cannabis markets having consolidated over the past year due to failed business plans, investors are now demanding better companies with real businesses, products, and revenues that are supported by real growth plans. Innocan checks all the boxes, with commercialization of their consumer products now commencing, as well as, a pharmaceutical division that is developing the pharmaceutical guided missile to defeat coronavirus-infected lungs. It won’t take long for the community to realize Innocan will form part of the new leadership group of cannabis driven pharmaceutical companies. We’re proud to take the Innocan story to the world.”

VIDEO: $HPQ.ca Silicon Development Agreement With PyroGenesis $PYR.ca Hints At Something Big Coming For Battery Market $DUK $XEL $NEE

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 4:13 PM on Wednesday, August 19th, 2020

When a globally renowned technology company (PyroGenesis) with an $800 million market cap signs a Development Agreement with your Company (HPQ Silicon) to develop Silicon capable of replacing graphite for Lithium-ion batteries, investors are forced to stand up and take notice.

When the CEO of HPQ then says the following, you have to start wondering what the 2 companies know that the rest of us don’t:   

“This agreement allows us to devote all our efforts in a dedicated entity focused on starting, as soon as possible, the PUREVAP NSiR and shipping samples of our Silicon nanomaterials.”  

There is no shortage of small cap companies claiming they want to supply materials to the Lithium-Ion battery market …. but only one of them is pursuing the material that can increase capacity by as much as 10X ….. Silicon.    

HPQ Silicon (HPQ:TSXV) isn’t just pursuing Silicon, they are on the verge of providing the market with multiple high-value silicon products sought after by Corporations building the next generation of Lithium-ion batteries, including not one but TWO (2) undisclosed companies that are already under NDA with HPQ Silicon.  

One of the best parts?  HPQ Silicon doesn’t have to worry about capital expenditure barriers that come with mining battery metals …. because Silicon is manufactured and HPQ has a patented process to manufacture Silicon at some of the lowest prices in the world.  A process that is fully funded all the way through to their pilot plant.
