The dawn of the psychedelics industry could not have come at a more needed time for humanity, as global events have served to exacerbate mental health issues related to anxiety and depression. Investors will need help identifying best of breed psychedelics companies and a review of the Red Light Holland story is all you need to know about where the Company is going.  

Red Light Holland (TRIP:CSE) is a psychedelics company focused on the development of premium “magic” truffles in the Netherlands. More than just lip service the Company already has these two very strong pillars in place:

COMMERCIALIZATION – The Company’s recreational brand of magic truffles are already being sold in the Netherlands through existing Smart Shops, as well as, its e-commerce platform through microdose packs.   To this end, TRIP has already sold its first 100,000 grams of magic truffles months ahead of schedule, and has now increased production by 10X to 1,000,000 grams (not a typo).   

TEAM – In order to help guide the company’s development and operations in the psychedelics space, TRIP has signed former Canopy Growth CEO Bruce Linton as chair of its advisory board and Former Canadian Health Minister, Tony Clement, as Senior Advisor.  Company President Hans Derix is a native of the Netherlands and an expert in the space with over a decade of accomplished experience.

As if that wasn’t enough, TRIP has also produced a virtual reality experience for prospective customers who want to experience the effects of their products before actually trying it.  The AGORACOM thesis of small cap wealth creation this decade is the convergence of emerging technologies – but even we didn’t foresee the explosive intersection of virtual reality and psychedelics!

If you believe in the future of Psychedelics and Psilocybin in particular, then this interview with Todd Shapiro, CEO of Red Light Holland will be a TRIP.  

VIDEO – POET Technologies $PTK.ca $POETF Hits 52 Week High As “Flip-Chip” Enables The World’s Lowest-Cost and Smallest Optical Engine Of Its Kind

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 7:32 AM on Tuesday, December 22nd, 2020

Understanding the world of Photonics isn’t the easiest thing small cap investors have had to understand.  In fact, it may be the very hardest thing they’ve ever had to understand.  However, given the fact we are the very reason current photonics devices aren’t living up to snuff trying to keep up with our surfing, streaming, binging and zooming – you start to see why understanding photonics and POET Technologies could open up investors to a whole new world.

We went beyond the press release with POET management to discuss the “Industry’s First Flip-Chip DML Lasers”  No, we didn’t understand the title at first either ….. but the management trio on the Zoom did a great job explaining it in terms that are both compelling yet understandable.

Before watching this video, here is some important background information. 

Photonics are critical to the next phase of semiconductor development.  Semiconductors are an essential component of every electronic device on the planet.

Photonic devices create, detect and manipulate light.  Laser generated light is fundamental to sensing, computing, data and telecommunications, which require the fastest transfer of data possible.

In short, all the surfing, streaming, binging and zooming we do requires 2 things to happen:

1. Massive data centres filled with tens of thousands of servers.

2. Speed … and we mean lighting speed that requires lasers to transfer all that data fast enough for you not to complain about 2 second latency when searching for last minute Christmas gift ideas (We see you)  

Examples of the the biggest trends sucking up all that power and speed in computing today:

  • Cloud Computing
  • Artificial Intelligence
  • 5G and Edge 

HERE IS THE PROBLEM

Making photonics devices that are reliable is expensive in terms of both capital and labour.

Cost declines have not kept up with Moore’s Law, with most photonics devices built one at a time – and multiple different components must be able to interconnect seamlessly without constant testing.

The Result? Integration of components at wafer-scale has not been fully implemented even by the largest companies working for the past 20 years  ….. UNTIL NOW

POET has developed a unique, disruptive and differentiating new entry into photonics markets.

The POET Optical Interposer™ Platform – patented photonics integration platform that enables lower cost and higher performance across a wide range of applications.

The press release announcing the industry’s first flip-chip DML lasers might very well take POET to a whole new level.

ThreeD Capital (IDK:CSE / IDKFF:OTCQB) prides itself on discovering great companies before everyone else … and so do shareholders who are being rewarded with another 52 week high thanks to Chairman and CEO Sheldon Inwentash, who is showing once again that he can find and invest in great “Ignored and undervalued companies” on his way to a 610% gain for IDK Year To Date.

He may make it look easy but Inwentash tirelessly casts a wide net 24/7/365 (trust us, we know) in his favourite industries to find best of breed companies in either Disruptive Technologies or Junior Resources.  And when he finds them, he isn’t afraid to have IDK invest big and be patient, something most investors just aren’t willing to do when they’re fixated on just daily or even hourly moves.

That’s why IDK, is like and ETF for ground floor investments that small cap investors would either be unable to find (private) or unable to participate in (early round accredited investors) or unable to hold.

For new investors to the markets in 2021 who don’t know him but better get to know him ASAP, Sheldon Inwentash is one of the greatest investors in Canadian history.  As Founder, Chairman and CEO of IDK, Inwentash’s track record of success speaks for itself, including successful exits in the hundreds of millions and even billions of dollars in previous years.  His last investment company commanded a market cap north of $1 Billion and now he’s looking to create another success with IDK.  

Will he do it?  He’s sure off to a good start so far by quietly making investments over the past couple of years that are now starting to pay off.  In this interview Inwentash discusses:

  • His investment philosophy
  • Some of his big 2020 winners including 
    • Peak Fintech $PKK – $PKKFF 
    • Loop Insights $MTRX – $RACMF
    • HPQ Silicon $HPQ
    • Esports Entertainment Group $GMBL
    • Bluesky Digital $BTC
    • ImagineAR $IP $IPNFF – where he is re-accumulating again
  • Why he’s investing heavily in gold juniors
  • Why he’s investing heavily in crypto currencies
  • Best of all, after one hell of a ride for the financial markets in 2020, Inwentash talks about why 2021 “is the year to be all in”

Watch this great interview … because when a legendary financier speaks, every small cap investor should be listening. We know we do.

VIDEO – Peak Fintech $PKK.ca $PKKFF Group CEO Johnson Joseph Says Q3 Revenue of $15M Is Just the Beginning $MOS.ca $MOGO.ca CTZ.ca $TRAD.ca $IDK.ca

Peak Fintech Group (@PEAK_Fintech) | Twitter

How do you connect over 100M small businesses in China who need access to different kinds of credit …. with over 10K banks and lending institutions that have different lending criteria?

Well, if you try to do it the old fashioned way, you just can’t.  This forces SMB’s (small and medium businesses) and Lenders to deal within local markets, which drastically reduces alternatives, competition and ultimately business …. while leaving both sides with a daunting, slow and inefficient manual workload. 

ENTERS PEAK FINTECH

The Peak Fintech Lending Hub uses Artificial Intelligence and analytics to fully automate the process by which lenders and borrowers connect quickly and match perfectly across several market verticals.

When CEO Johnson Joseph says this AI-Powered platform is revolutionizing the Chinese SMB commercial lending ecosystem, they’re not just paying lip service … Peak Fintech is delivering results

  • Reported revenue growth of 293% to $11.2 million for the first half of 2020
  • Reported revenue growth of 236.% to $15.1 million for JUST Q3 (a record)
  • On pace to exceed Fiscal 2020 Targeting $40 million in revenues and $4 million in EBITDA.
  • Platform now has lending products from 54 different banks and lending institutions
  • Signed Agreement To Bring Lending Hub To 60,000 Online Electronics Stores
  • Stores would use Lending HUB to finance purchase of electronics inventory
  • 100% market capture would translate into $1.35B in annual revenues 
  • Signed Agreement With Italian Retailer Gruppo Coin to provide short-term loans to ~55,000 influencers with their own e-stores and ~ 120M total followers
  • …. and so much more

Everyone agrees that 2020 was Peak Fintech’s coming out party … but CEO JJ believes this is just the beginning as he looks forward to 2021 and beyond.

As the name implies, ImagineAR (IP:CSE / IPNFF:OTCQB) is an Augmented Reality Company … but they’re not just any AR company.  Imagine enables businesses to create their own mobile phone AR campaigns with no programming or technology experience. Why is that important?  Ask Apple CEO Tim Cook who stated

“AR Will play an important role in how we use technology in the future – and promises to be as influential in our society as the smart phone”  

For those of you that are just discovering Augmented Reality, “AR” is essentially a technology that lays digital images and graphics over the real world, typically by looking through your cell phone or special glasses.  If you think it sounds like a gimmick, it isn’t.  AR will create an entire new revenue stream for businesses, organizations and sports teams that will boggle the mind in the next 3 years.

ImagineAR provides small cap investors with an opportunity to participate in the growth of this mega market in the making …. and they they signed the MASSIVE brand contracts in 2020 to prove it:

DECEMBER 10 – ImagineAR Announces Agreement with Indian Superstar Singer Ananya Birla

NOVEMBER 25 – ImagineAR Signs Two Year Partnership Agreement with Real Sociedad of La Liga To Provide Interactive Augmented Reality Experiences for Fans

NOVEMBER 20 – ImagineAR to Deliver Immersive AR Conference Experience for Shoppers Drug Mart

  “Shoppers Drug Mart is thrilled to be the global pioneer in integrating mobile augmented reality with virtual events.”  (Karen Bossion, Director Conferences & Events)  

SEPTEMBER 30 – ImagineAR Signs Two-Year Agreement with Valencia C.F. Of La Liga To Provide Interactive Augmented Reality Experiences for Almost 7 Million Fans Around The World

SEPTEMBER 24 – NFL Alumni Academy and ImagineAR Sign 5 Year Partnership Agreement

We could go on but you get the pont …. and some of the smartest people in sports agree the Company is a best of breed company:

“In my 30 years working in sports and entertainment technology, I have never seen a solution that provides such a high level of interaction & engagement”  (Chris Dill)

“The ImagineAR platform is years ahead of every other company today” (WaV Sports)”

“ImagineAR has one of the most amazing mobile technologies I have seen to date” (Gus Frerotte)

“The ImagineAR augmented reality platform is truly a gamechanger for sports organizations and athletes to deliver in-home mobile phone engagement” (WaV Sports)

2020 was a great year and a major turning point for ImagineAR and sets up the Company for an ever far better 2021 … which explains why our latest interview with CEO Alen Paul Silverrstieen is by far the best one of the year.

VIDEO – KWESST Micro Systems $KWE.ca Soldier Launched Micro Drones, Electronic Soldier Decoys and a $1.1 Million Dollar Follow-On Order From A Key US Military Customer $WRTC $BYRN.ca $PAT.ca $POWW

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 8:45 AM on Thursday, December 17th, 2020

If you haven’t heard of KWESST Micro Systems (KWE:TSXV) you’re not alone because the Company just listed for trading a couple of months ago – and it is probably the coolest new listing of 2020 if you love high-tech, covert defense systems that we only get to see in Tom Cruise movies.

KWESST is a leader in “soldier systems” which are technologies that increase the capabilities of soldiers,  Let’s be clear right off the start, KWESST doesn’t sell weaponry.  Rather, it sells technologies that make a big difference to the safety and effectiveness of soldiers.

For example, out in a field of combat, soldiers emit Electro Magnetic (EM) signatures that make them detectable by enemy combatants.  KWESST has a battlefield decoy system that creates multiple false phantom signatures to spoof adversaries.  This picture is worth 1,000 words.

We could go on about many other such technologies created by KWESST but this is AGORACOM after all and we want to get down to the business of KWESST, the highlights of which are as follows: 

  • A developer of next-generation systems for forces around the world, including those of NATO and its allies
  • A leadership team whose experience spans decades and hundreds of millions of dollars in military and homeland security contracts
  • A sales and distribution network of agents that spans the globe
  • Partnerships with globally recognized OEM’s, including Samsung
  • A sales pipeline that stood at  $93,000,000 (not a typo) as of August 2020
  • Already generating revenues in 2020

And last but not least, a secret weapon in its Executive Chairman David Luxton, whose companies under his leadership have generated over $1,000,000,000 (Yes, BILLION).

The soldier systems market is projected to hit $14.5 Billion by 2023 and, up until  now, small cap investors have never had a company to participate in this lucrative (and SUPER COOL) market.

Now you do.  Meet KWESST Micro Systems.  Watch this great interview with David Luxton himself to learn more about KWE and why it just received a follow-on order for $1.1 Million from a key US Military Customer.  We’d tell you who it is but we’d then have to release KWE micro drones …. you know the rest.

VIDEO – Mountain Valley MD $MVMD.ca Catches Small Cap Fire After #Ivermectin Testimony In US Senate Called “Miraculous Effectiveness” In Prohibiting Transmission Of #COVID-19

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 4:19 PM on Monday, December 14th, 2020

“It basically obliterates transmission of this virus”  

This was the testimony of  Pierre Kory, M.D., Associate Professor of Medicine at St. Luke’s Aurora Medical Center, delivers passionate testimony during the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee hearing on “Early Outpatient Treatment: An Essential Part of a COVID-19 Solution, Part II.”

We interviewed Leigh Hughes, newly appointed Advisor to MVMD who will be supporting the Company in the areas of M&A, corporate finance and pharmaceutical licensing, to provide us with further insight as to why the testimony of Dr. Kory is so relevant to MVMD … and why Dr. Kory actually called MVMD last week to discuss the Company’s involvement with Ivermectin.

Mountain Valley MD has traded over 50,000,000 shares in the last 3 trading days, so there is a clear need for information amongst retail investors.

Datamerex (DM:TSXV) has the rare benefit that most small cap companies would only dream of …. 2 successful independent divisions that are each capable of being a company maker.

The first division is their Artificial Intelligence driven social media monitoring and discovery product … and this isn’t some basic social media monitoring tool for keywords. Clients include Canadian Federal Government, DRDC, Health Canada, United States Air Force and LOTTE (a $2.6B South Korean multinational conglomerate.

As a result of the highest level security clearances required to do this level of work, Datametrex was well positioned with deep roots in South Korea to add their second, though unintended division of COVID-19 test kit distribution.  Again, this isn’t some small cap stretch trying to capitalize on a trend for the sake of stock promotion. Rather, when the Canadian Government came calling for assistance in importing and distributing COVID-19 test kits, Datametrex stepped up to the task thanks to its security clearances already in place in both countries.

Since then, the company has signed multiple multi-million dollar COVID-19 test kit supply agreements with mining companies, a $20M CAD agreement with the television and film industry and various educational institutions.  

As a result, Datametrex has had its’ best year ever in the first 3 quarters of 2020 as follows:

  • Record revenue of $7.6 million for the nine-month 2020 period compared to $2.6 in 2019
  • Record revenue of $4.9 million was generated in Q3
  • First ever positive EBIDTA quarter

Watch this powerful interview with CEO Marshall Gunter to discuss the year that was … and why he’s so optimistic about 2021.

“Nearly 50% of industrial injuries and fatalities are alcohol related.  Commercial Fleets suffer from over 11,000 alcohol related accidents every year.  That rate is climbing and technology has failed to keep pace with this epidemic”
